Please leave all medicines in their original containers, if possible. WHAT TO BRING TO THE COLLECTION * Expired or unwanted prescription medications * Unneeded over-the-counter medicines * Drugs that didn't work for you, a family member, or pet * Drugs that are no longer used * Medicine from deceased family members * Unknown tablets and capsules The Prescription Drug Take Back day provides a safe way for our community to dispose of the unwanted medicines they have in their homes.
