DEA's Next Prescription Drug Take Back Day to be Held April 29

The Drug Enforcement Administration and its law enforcement partners will hold the 13th National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on Saturday, April 29, 2017, at thousands of collection sites across the U.S. This free and anonymous event gives people the opportunity to rid their homes of potentially dangerous expired or unused medications, including painkillers, sedatives, tranquilizers and stimulants. Some federal agencies are collecting unwanted medications on Wednesday, April 26, so employees are urged to check with their agency's Human Resources Department.
