Don’t throw out old pills!
Bring them to ‘Prescription Drug Take-Back’ event
Don’t toss those old, outdated prescription pills in the trash!
In an effort to keep prescription drugs from falling into the wrong hands, the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) started National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day to encourage residents to bring their outdated medications to a safe place, such as a police station, instead of putting them in the trash or flushing them down the toilet.
The Eighth Annual National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day is Saturday, April 26.
