Prevention is Key
Get a sense of the breadth and depth of the opioid crisis in Pennsylvania. See the Drug Enforcement Administration's report, Drug Presence in Pennsylvania, 1999-2016.

If you are wondering what you can do, remember: preventing the misuse and abuse of medications can be done simply by cleaning unwanted and unused prescription drugs out of your medicine cabinet. Participate in the next scheduled National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on April 28th, 2018 at participating locations. Participating locations will be listed here starting April 1st. Follow us on Facebook to see reminders about this safe drug disposal opportunity.
