Dispose of Unused/Unwanted/Expired Medications During Rx Take Back Day, April 27.

Prescription drug abuse is a serious problem around the country and Hamilton County is no exception. Saturday, April 27, is an opportunity for area residents to dispose of unused, unneeded, and unwanted prescription medications. The Council on Alcohol and Other Drugs along with the Sheriff's Office will accept expired and unwanted medications at four locations (Riverview Health, Sheridan Elliott Pharmacy, 4H Fairgrounds and Cicero CVS) from 9AM-Noon.

The Rx Take-Back sites cannot accept liquids, sharps, or needles. Liquids can be mixed with oil dry or cat litter, wrapped in plastic, and placed in the garbage. Sharps, syringes, lancets and needles can be taken to Hamilton County Household Hazardous Waste, 1717 Pleasant Street, Noblesville.

The Sheriff's Office properly disposed of more than 1,000 pounds of medications in 2018 and nearly 200 pounds already in 2019. Let's keep area homes as well as the environment free of drugs.
