BELGRADE – The first of two 2022 prescription drug take-back events will be held from 10 a.m. top 2 p.m. Saturday, April 30, at the transfer station.
A Kennebec County sheriff’s deputy will be on hand to collect expired and or unwanted pharmaceuticals. The service is offered free of charge to residents and nonresidents, and part of a national effort hosted by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency and local law enforcement.
The National Prescription Drug Take Back Day aims to provide a safe, convenient, and responsible means of disposing of prescription drugs, while also educating the general public about the potential for abuse of medications. For more information, click here.
The next drug takeback will be in October.
