TUCKS Medicated Cooling Pads, 100 Count

Have been using these for years and they do provide a lot of welcome relief. However, when I was looking for info on the jar indicating whether it's recyclable, I noticed that there's a "do not flush" icon on the top of the lid. I could find no other info about that in writing anywhere (nor about recycling). It is VERY disturbing that these are not flushable, when people so often use them in relation to their toileting needs. So many of us have issues today with our plumbing, too, not just in our homes but our cities also have sewage problems due to people flushing nonflushable materials like this --which includes wipes that claim to be flushable but really are not. Now I'll have to use a separate canister with a closed lid to dispose of them, like what wipes come in, which I'll label as trash so no one opens it thinking they're clean wipes. What a huge hassle! In this day and age, the company's Research and Development department really should be able to come up with a different material for these that can be flushed. Now I will have to apply them very sparingly, --which means I'm going to buy MUCH less of them in the future!
