You have an opportunity this weekend to safely dispose of old prescription drugs. WNIN’s John Gibson has details:
Indiana State Police are taking part in the Drug Enforcement Administration’s nationwide
“Prescription Drug Take Back” initiative.
The goal is to prevent prescription drug abuse and theft.
Evansville area residents can drop off expired, unused, or unwanted prescriptions at the Indiana State Police post on Highway 41 in northern Vanderburgh County from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday (Oct. 24).
Authorities say the program will accept liquid and pill medications.
Vaping pens without batteries and vaping cartridges will also be accepted.
But needles, new or used, will NOT be accepted for disposal.
The ISP says the service is free and anonymous with no questions asked.
