#TakeBackDay is a free event for communities nationwide to properly dispose of old and unneeded medications safely and anonymously.  On Saturday, April 27, from 10am-2pm bring those old and unneeded medications to a collection site near you!

Our agents seize pill presses in the homes of drug traffickers on a regular basis. Agent David Lanzoni says these pill presses allow them to make thousands of pills a day. David says they contain fentanyl, are deadly and they are made to look like other medication to fool you...

Set your reminders for #TakeBackDay ! DEA’s National Prescription Drug Take Back Day reflects DEA’s commitment to Americans’ safety and health.

Don’t be surprised by what is in your medicine cabinet. If you haven’t used them, don’t need them, or they’re expired, drop them off at a #TakeBackDay collection site near you on Saturday, April 27th, 10am-2pm. hubs.li/Q02rJDwK0
