September 26th is Prescription Drug Take-Back Day

The Drug Enforcement Agency’s (DEA) 10th national Prescription Drug Take-Back Day will take place Saturday, September 26th from 10 am to 2 pm local time in every state. Prescription Drug Take-Backs are vital, preventing abuse and theft of unused drugs.  Far too many Americans are hurt by the misuse of prescription drugs. From diminishing achievements in school and greater risks on our roads, to lives cut tragically short by overdose. The consequences of substance abuse are profound. That’s why Prescription Drug Take-Backs are so important. All Seattle police precincts will be participating on September the 26th, and will gladly take back your unused drugs.
