Hardee County Extension

Hello Everyone!

 

Attached is the flier for DEA’s Drug Take Back Day which is THIS Saturday, April 27th, 2013 from 10am – 2pm.   This is a great opportunity for those who missed the previous events, or who have subsequently accumulated unwanted, unused prescription drugs, to safely dispose of those medications. “Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs. Drop-off sites included Hardee County Sheriff’s Department and the Wauchula Police Department. Please join in and forward this flier to your contacts encouraging them to help make a difference by cleaning out old medications in their homes.

 

 

Kind regards,

Suzanne
