A medication take-back event is being planned by Holy Family Memorial for Saturday, April 24.
The purpose of the event is to keep dangerous unused medications from falling into the wrong hands or entering the environment or water supply. The event is open to the public for the safe disposal of most medications, including prescription and over-the-counter medications, ointments, patches, non-aerosol sprays, inhalers, creams, liquids, and pet medications.
The take-back will be held at the HFM center at 2300 Western Avenue, and there is no charge for dropping off medications.
