Prescription Take Back Day

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 the 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 of.
