Saturday is National Prescription Drug Take Back Day, and your pharmacy team has a role to play. 💊
is a free event for communities nationwide to dispose of old and unneeded medications safely and anonymously.
Since 2010, Take Back Day has removed more than 21 million pounds of unneeded medications from American homes. Independent pharmacy teams are a big part of why that number keeps growing.
More than 4,400 collection sites will be active across the country on October 24 from 10am–2pm. Let your patients know by mentioning it at pickup, putting a sign on the counter, or posting on your pharmacy’s social pages.
