 N!\n\nThis initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health is
 sue. Many Americans are not aware that medicines that languish in home cab
 inets are highly susceptible to diversion\, misuse and abuse. Studies show
  that the majority of misused prescription drugs are obtained from family 
 and friends\, including from home medicine cabinets. In addition\, many Am
 ericans do not know how to properly dispose of unused medication\, often f
 lushing it down the toilet or throwing it away - both potential safety and
  health hazards.\n\nDrug take back days and permanent drop boxes also supp
 ort the goals of the Eco-City Alexandria initiative to promote a place whe
 re people can live healthier and economically productive lives\, while red
 ucing their impact on the environment.\n\nThe service is free and anonymou
 s\; no questions asked.\n\nTo learn more about ways to prevent substance u
