Get Rid Of Unneeded Prescriptions At Drug Take Back Day In Brick

BRICK, NJ — Do you have prescription medication sitting in your cabinet that you no longer need?

You can dispose of it safely on Saturday, April 22, at the Take Back Day prescription medication collection event, set for 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Walmart on Route 88.

Brick Township police will have the township's secure medication collection box available.

You can drop off unneeded or expired medications that are in pill or dry forms. They cannot accept needles or liquid medications.

No identification is necessary; prescription labels should be removed from the containers.

The goal of National Take Back Day is to get prescription medications that are not needed out of the reach of people who will steal them and try to sell them on the streets illegally.

If you are unable to drop off medications on Saturday, the Project RX dropbox is located in the lobby at the police department, 401 Chambers Bridge Road. It is accessible and secure around the clock seven days a week.
