Bring your unused or expired pharmaceuticals, both prescription and over-the-counter, for disposal at the Richardson Police Department’s drive-through/drop off Drug Take Back event, in conjunction with the Drug Enforcement Administration’s spring National Prescription Drug Take Back Day. The event keeps medications from being flushed down a sink drain or toilet and potentially entering our waterways, and also helps keep drugs out of the trash, where pets, children and others might acquire them.

All solid dosage pharmaceutical products and liquids in consumer containers may be accepted. Liquid products, such as cough syrup, should remain sealed in their original container. The depositor should ensure that the cap is tightly sealed to prevent leakage. Intravenous solutions, injectables, and syringes will not be accepted due to potential hazard posed by blood-borne pathogens.
