Brief Description |
Gather all unused medications from your home and bring them to the Medication Cleanout(tm) drive through for appropriate disposal. Event can accept only medications and only from households (no loads from clinics, churches, physician offices, or healthcare facilities). Medications should be kept in their original containers. Event staff will remove patient names, etc from containers prior to disposal, but participants are welcome to mark out their name ahead of time if they wish -- we just ask that they leave the drug name and strength unmarked.
