Reminder: Prescription Drug Take-Back Initiative at Auburn Safety Complex, Sat. 4/26, 10a to 2p. Dispose unwanted & unused pres.
drugs.
This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs. Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet.
