Safe Prescription Drug Storage and Disposal
Taking prescription medications from friends and family members is an easy way for a person to get access to opioid drugs.
If you use prescription opioids, safely store those medications to prevent them from getting in the wrong hands. Prescription medication should be stored securely in a lock box or locked medicine cabinet. Leftover medications should be disposed of, not "kept for later." The safest way to do this is to drop them off at a safe medication disposal site. Several drug drop boxes are located throughout Cattaraugus County and the surrounding area. Medications can easily be dropped off with no questions asked. |
