If you have a medicine cabinet full of old medication, you will want to mark your calendar for an upcoming medication take-back day on Danbury on October 22 at Danbury Police Headquarters (375 Main Street) from 10am to 2pm.
Why is it so important to safely dispose of your prescriptions? Prescriptions left in purses and medicine cabinets can be stolen and misused. The Medicine Abuse project calls people "accidental dealers" when their medications end up being misused by others. This is especially dangerous with opioid pain medications, as they are highly addictive and have a high risk of overdose.
Be a part of the solution and bring your prescription medicationss to this Prescription Drug Take Back Day.
For additional information, call Police Headquarters 203- 979-5477
