This event provides community members with a safe, free, and anonymous way to dispose of unneeded or expired prescription medications. Tablets, capsules, patches, and other solid forms of prescription drugs will be accepted. Please note that syringes, sharps, and illicit drugs will not be accepted. Liquid medications, such as cough syrup, must be sealed in their original containers with caps tightly secured.
