Prescription drug take-back events across the state can help you safely destroy old drugs to keep them from falling into the wrong hands.
Local law enforcement in North Carolina partners with Safe Kids North Carolina and the Drug Enforcement Administration to collect and safely destroy these drugs during Operation Medicine Drop.
Safely disposing of old medications through Operation Medicine Drop events instead of flushing them down the drain prevents chemicals from ending up in the water supply.
