On 4/28/12 the Drug Enforcement Administration will be running the National Drug Take-Back Day. This event is a great way to safely dispose of accumulated unwanted (or unused) prescription drugs.
You can find a location near you by visiting the DEA collection location page here. We searched our area and were happy to see many participating locations; most of them seemed to be local police posts. You can also call 1-800-882-9539 for general inquiries.
This is a great way to safely dispose of your old medications – and make room for more great freebies in your medicine cabinet!
