The public is invited to dispose of old, unused, unwanted, or expired medications at a prescription drug take-back event from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. October 26 at Republic Services, 110 NE Walnut Blvd.
Safely disposing of prescription drugs at events such as these are a better alternative to flushing them down the toilet. The collection event will gather most prescription and over-the-counter medications, with no questions asked. Participants are advised to remove medications from their packaging to save space and to mark out names or any other identifiable information on labels.
