The Danville Police Department is partnering with Rosecrance to host the National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on Saturday. It will be from 10AM-Noon in the east side parking lot of the Public Safety Building.
Police will collect tablets, capsules, patches, and other solid forms of prescription drugs. The site will not accept syringes, sharps, and illicit drugs. Liquid products, such as cough syrup, should remain sealed in their original container. The cap must be tightly sealed to prevent leakage.
This event helps local residents easily rid their homes of unneeded medications—those that are old, unwanted, or expired—that too often become a gateway to addiction.
