National Prescription Drug Take Back Day
Saturday, October 27, 2018
National Prescription Drug Take Back Day is a partnership between the Drug Enforcement Administration and local law enforcement.
Prescription drug take back prevents prescription misuse, accidental poisoning, overdose and suicide. Medicines in the home are a leading cause of accidental poisoning. Nearly 4 out of 5 people who start using heroin start with inappropriate use of prescriptions. Flushed or trashed medicines pollute waters and land. If you have stopped taking a prescription or it is expired, please be safe and dispose.
