Have unused, unwanted, or expired prescription medicine? Columbia Police officers can help you properly dispose of your Rx this weekend. In a bi-annual partnership with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) for Prescription Drug Take Back Day, you are encouraged to stop by CPDHeadquarters & place your medicines in a safe & secure area.
An officer will be on hand to answer your questions. The process is easy — there is a locked receptacle at Headquarters to securely hold medicines in solid form only.
According to the DEA, the event helps reduce drug addiction, overdose, and misuse.
