Vienna Police To Hold Drug Take Back Day

From the Town of Vienna Police Department: In conjunction with the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (D.E.A.) and state and local law enforcement agencies, the Vienna Police Department will again participate in a one-day initiative to remove potentially dangerous controlled substances from area homes.

On April 28, 2018 between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. the Vienna Police Department will have
a collection site for old, expired, unused, or unwanted medications. Prescription medications, controlled or
non-controlled substances, and over the counter drugs may be turned in anonymously at the collection point
inside the Vienna Police Department located at 215 Center Street, South, Vienna, Virginia 22180.

Participants may dispose of medication in its original container or by removing it and disposing of it directly
in to the collection box. If an original container is used the individual should consider removing any
identifying information from the prescription label.

Liquid products should remain sealed in their original container to prevent leakage.
Intravenous solutions, injectables, and syringes will not be accepted due to associated hazards.
Commercial businesses, pharmacies or other medical facilities may not use this as a means to discard
expired medications or medical waste.
