National Drug Take-Back Day....comes to Topeka KS!

On Saturday April 30th from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will coordinate a collaborative effort with state and local law enforcement agencies to take part in a nationwide prescription drug take-back, operating collection sites around the nation where citizens can turn in their unused, unneeded, expired prescription medications.


In partnership with the DEA and Kansas Attorney General’s Office, The Shawnee County Sheriff’s Office will be hosting a drop off site at the Shawnee Heights Fire District, 5301 SE California, for National Drug Take-Back Day.

This will be an opportunity for members of the public to bring in any unused, unwanted or expired prescription drugs for safe disposal, with no questions asked and at no cost to them. After the drugs are collected, they will be turned over to the DEA for disposal.
