National Drug Take-Back Day is this Saturday
Almost everybody has old prescription drugs cluttering up their bathrooms and other spaces. The trouble is, it’s hard to dispose of them responsibly.
On Saturday, though, it’s easy. A couple of times a year, the Drug Enforcement Administration, in conjunction with the Department of Justice, sponsors the National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day, where consumers can drop off their old medications for proper disposal.
That day is Saturday!

The first Drug Take-Back Day took place in 2011. According to the event’s website, in that time 1700 tons of unneeded or expired medications have been collected and properly disposed of through this program. That’s amazing. Can you contribute to that number this weekend?
