Too often, unused prescription medications end up in the wrong hands, creating serious risks for both individuals and communities. That’s why the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s National Prescription Drug Take Back Day exists—to provide a safe, convenient way to dispose of medications and help prevent misuse. The next Take Back Day is this Saturday, April 25th, so now is the perfect time to clean out your medicine cabinets and plan a quick drop-off at your local police station.
