BRING YOUR UNUSED MEDICATIONS & JOIN US ON OCTOBER 28th FOR NATIONAL DEA TAKE BACK DAY FROM 10am-2pm

October 28th is National DEA Take-Back Day and we are partnering with numerous organizations in 4 different counties to provide 9 take-back sites from 10a-2p. Take this opportunity to get unused medications out of your home and dispose of them appropriately.

DID YOU KNOW…
• Unused or expired prescription medications are a public safety issue and can lead to accidental poisoning, overdose, and abuse?
• Unused prescription medications thrown in the trash can be retrieved and abused or illegally sold?
• Unused drugs that are flushed contaminate the water supply?
• Take-back programs and permanent drop boxes are the best way to dispose of old drugs?
