National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day is taking place all over the nation on Saturday, and there will be plenty of locations in Southwest Virginia to safely dispose of unwanted, unused, or expired prescription medications, with no questions asked.
“Prescription drug misuse often starts right at home. By properly disposing of old or unused medications, residents can help keep our families and neighborhoods safe. Events like this are a simple but powerful way to protect our community.”
Captain Brian Murray, Public Information Officer for the Campbell County Sheriff’s Office
