About Ecopharm
For pharmacists, by pharmacists
Ecopharm is a Florida‑based pharmaceutical reverse distributor, and a long‑term, sustainable solution for expired drugs. Expired drugs is where we begin.
Our mission
To create a vastly improved approach to pharmaceutical returns, and to redefine pharmaceutical reverse distribution, together.
Why we built Ecopharm
Your business at the core of ours
We approach our technology with the pharmacist front of mind. We ourselves are pharmacists, so we understand the pain points that have plagued the industry, and still do.
Slow payments nobody could explain, paperwork that ate clinical time and returns that disappeared into a black box. We set out to remove that friction with a process that speaks for itself, and we keep developing tools to solve the daily friction that remains.

What makes us different
What makes Ecopharm different?
Many reverse distributors lead with their size. Ecopharm differs in three plain ways: it was founded by a pharmacist, it runs on its own software, and it pays each return on a single check.
Founded by a pharmacist
Daniel Vizel, PharmD, started Ecopharm after living with the pain points of traditional reverse distribution. Our team has stood behind the counter and knows the job.
Our own platform
Proprietary software, not a spreadsheet, with real‑time statuses and a statement for every return.
A single‑check model
The complete amount for your return on one check within 90 days, so you never chase payments.
We are your strongest advocate. Your success is our success. Let's work together to maximize your return values.
Licensing footprint
Licensed, registered and accredited
