Clark County Take Back Initiative Coming Saturday
Sunday, October 20th, 2013 -- 8:40 AM
The Clark County Take Back Initiative is happening Saturday Oct. 26th.This is the fifth time that Clark County has done this completely anonymous initiative and they have been hugely successful in the past.
Chief Deputy Jim Backus said that the initiative is an excellent way to get rid of unused prescription or over the counter drugs. Unused prescription drugs just thrown away in the trash can be abused or illegally sold.
This is a National event that different districts can get involved in by expressing interest with the Drug Enforcement Agency.
You can bring almost anything to the initiative, but there are a few things you can?t which include needles and inhalers. They'll even take liquid medicine as long as it's in the original container.
Feel free to contact us with questions and/or comments.
