Sumario:Almost all aspects of society from food security to disease control and prevention have benefited from pharmaceutical and personal care products, yet these products are a major source of contamination that ends up in wastewater and ecosystems.

Here we review pharmaceutical and personal care products with focus on their occurrence in the environment, detection, risk, and removal.
