 EDLE DISPOSAL BOX ALSO AVAILABLE AT THIS LOCATION!\n\nThis initiative addr
 esses a vital public safety and public health issue. Many Americans are no
 t aware that medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptib
 le to diversion\, misuse and abuse. Studies show that the majority of misu
 sed prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends\, including fr
 om home medicine cabinets. In addition\, many Americans do not know how to
  properly dispose of unused medication\, often flushing it down the toilet
  or throwing it away - both potential safety and health hazards.\n\nDrug t
 ake back days and permanent drop boxes also support the goals of the Eco-C
 ity Alexandria initiative to promote a place where people can live healthi
 er and economically productive lives\, while reducing their impact on the 
 environment.\n\nThe service is free and anonymous\; no questions asked.\n\
