This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue.
Many Americans are not aware that medicines that languish in home cabinet
s are highly susceptible to diversion\, misuse and abuse. Studies show th
at the majority of misused prescription drugs are obtained from family an
d friends\, including from home medicine cabinets. In addition\, many Ame
ricans do not know how to properly dispose of unused medication\, often f
lushing it down the toilet or throwing it away - both potential safety an
d health hazards.\n\nDrug take back days and permanent drop boxes also su
pport the goals of the Eco-City Alexandria initiative to promote a place

reducing their impact on the environment.\n\nThe service is free and ano
