Full Notification

The Fairview Police Department is participating in the DEA’s nationwide prescription medication disposal program. Bring unused medications between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 22, to Fairview Fire Station #1, located at 510 S. State Highway 5.

The program provides a safe, convenient and responsible way to dispose of prescription drugs. Medication may be disposed of in its original container or by removing the medication from its container and disposing of it directly into the disposal box. Liquid products, such as cough syrup, should remain sealed in the original container. Caps must be tightly sealed to prevent leakage. Intravenous solutions, injectables and syringes will not be accepted due to potential hazards posed by blood-borne pathogens.
