INDIANA, (WOWO): It's that time of year again for National Drug-Take Back Day.
During the national prescription drug-take back day on Saturday, October 26th, you can get rid of your expired or unwanted medications for free.
Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller partnered with the Drug Enforcement Agency and the Indiana State Department of Health to remind Hoosiers to drop off any unwanted medications at one of 84 collection sites.
“State and local efforts alone won’t be enough to end Indiana’s prescription drug abuse epidemic,” Zoeller said. “That’s why we are calling on Hoosiers to do their part and safely dispose of their unwanted medications. This can help keep pills off of the streets and out of the wrong hands.”
All sites will operate from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and consumers can find a location nearest them by visiting www.dea.gov or by calling 1.800.882.9539.
