DEA Medication Take Back Day in Polk County – Saturday, April 25

 


Truth is...most teens don't get prescription pills from strangers. They get them from the home medicine cabinet. 1-in-4 teens say that they've abused prescription drugs. That's why it matters to take steps to keep meds locked up and cleaned out - safely out of the reach of children, teens, and those who may have addiction issues.

Our prevention partners at Informed Families share 3 quick steps that make a real difference

💊 lock them up

💊 track what you have

💊 safely dispose of meds that you no longer need



InnerAct Alliance and StandUP Polk would like to share when and where you can dispose of unneeded or expired human and pet medications. Our county's DEA Rx Take Back Day will be held on Saturday, April 25, from 10am to 2pm, at participating Polk County Police Department locations (pending approval). 

Be Aware & Don't Share - Lock Your Meds!
