DEA Medication Takeback

October 24 @ 10:00 am 2:00 pm

Bring your unused, unwanted, and expired household medications!

No questions asked. Items dropped off are kept anonymous.

Metro Drug Coalition partners with local law enforcement to reduce the number of unused, unwanted, and expired medications in homes around our community.

Disposing of your medications properly reduces the risk of substance misuse and environmental harm caused by flushing or throwing medications away improperly.

What is accepted:

  • All household prescription and over-the-counter medications (including narcotics)
  • Liquid medications
  • Ointments, lotions, drops
  • Pet medications
  • Syringes/medical sharps (including EpiPens)
  • Expired Narcan/Naloxone
