As the war on opioids continues to be fought in our community and communities across the nation, National Drug Take-Back Day will stress the importance of these drug take-back days as an initial step in stopping the opiate epidemic by reducing access to unused prescription drugs.
In Lucas County, on Saturday, October 24, 2020 from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM, Area Police officers will be at numerous locations throughout the city collecting unwanted or unused narcotics, over the-counter medications, pet medications, prescriptions, and vitamins for proper disposal. Only select collection sites will accept: syringes, inhalers, liquid medications, or ointments/lotions. Call ahead to verify if your location will take these items.
