Safely Dispose of Unused Medications on National RX Take Back Day.

Mark your calendars for October 25, when the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will host its National Prescription Drug Take Back Day.

This nationwide event gives residents a safe and responsible way to dispose of unused or expired prescription medications. Local police departments will serve as designated drop-off sites, helping keep medications out of the wrong hands and protecting the environment from improper disposal.
