This program is anonymous and all efforts will be made to protect the anonymity of individuals disposing of medications.
Law enforcement personnel can not handle the medications at any time.
The role of the law enforcement officer is to maintain and safe-guard and integrity of the disposed items.
The individual may dispose of medication either in its original container or by removing medication from its container and disposing directly into the drug disposal box.
If the original container is submitted, the individual should be encouraged to remove the prescription label if it contains any personal identifying information.
Liquid products, such as cough medicine, should remain sealed in their original container.
The depositor should ensure that the cap is tightly sealed to prevent leakage.
Syringes and other sharp instruments will not be accepted!
