NFO: National Prescription Drug Take Back Day works to keep old prescription drugs out of the wrong hands. Take Back Day collected 314 tons of pills at 4,644 collection sites nationwide during the October 2024 event. Most of those drugs came from family members and friends, right out of their home medicine cabinets. Experts say flushing drugs down the toilet or throwing them in the trash creates safety and health hazards. The Miami Township Police Department always has a disposal box in its lobby available during lobby hours, but the department is proud to take part in DEA Take Back Day, Saturday, April 26, 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
