It's that time of year again, so clear out the cabinets and get rid of your unused or expired medications for safe disposal. Saturday, April 27th is Take-Back Day from 10am to 2pm at the Springfield Township Police Department. This prescription drug disposal program is run through Montgomery County.
Take-Back Day in Montgomery County is a chance for residents to clean out their medicine cabinets of unwanted, unused and expired prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) medications and dispose of them easily in a safe, environmentally friendly way. It also helps provide a convenient and responsible means of disposing of prescription drugs, while also educating the general public about the potential for abuse and medications.
Accepted during Drug Take-Back Day (and throughout the year at permanent MedReturn boxes) are prescription and over-the-counter tablets and capsules, inhalers, creams, ointments, nasal sprays, pet medicines and vaping products. Not accepted are needles and intravenous/injectable solutions. Please see the flyer below, or call the non-emergency police line at 215-836-1601 for more information.
