KOSI 101.1

Saturday is National Prescription Drug Take Back Day! This is the day to empty out your medicine cabinets and get rid of expired and unused prescription drugs. The big goal is to keep those medicines from not only ending up in the wrong hands, but to also keep them from being flushed and contaminating our water supply. Collection sites will be open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 26. If you want more information or want to find a location nearest you, check out www.dea.gov/takebackday
