It’s time to toss out your old drugs

Look around your home, I bet you have this stored in a medicine cabinet, maybe even under your bathroom sink or better yet in the vanity drawer, I’m talking about all your expired old medication that is no longer in need.  A few years back I lost my father and we recently discovered we had held on to some of his medication for his diabetes and thought WOW we definitely don’t need these meds anymore.

If you have young ones in the house and have old medication laying around now is the time to get rid of it all so they don’t become curious and find it.  Grab a bag and clean it up and get ready to turn it all in.   I want to make you aware of Unwanted medication take-back day – Saturday, Oct 26th, 10 am to 2 pm various locations in Clark Co.
