Why is this a shocking surprise? What do they think happens to old drugs?
I have three BIG bottles of neomycin I don't take anymore.
If I flush them, there you go!

I never flush drugs down the toilet. I would never have thought of that. But even if you put them in the trash and eventually the landfill, wouldn't they leach into ground water at some point?
