How do I reclaim disk space in data folder

I have 5 databases:

- mysql
- test
- product1
- product2
- product3

The hard disk on my server was near full, so I decided to delete databases product2 and product3 as I no longer need them. I dropped the databases product2 and I noticed the disk space was not freeed by MySQL after dropping this database. The tables in databases product2 and product3 are INNODB.

What is the best method to reclaim my disk space when dropping entire databases?
