 s initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Many
  Americans are not aware that medicines that languish in home cabinets are
  highly susceptible to diversion\, misuse and abuse. Studies show that the
  majority of misused prescription drugs are obtained from family and frien
 ds\, including from home medicine cabinets. In addition\, many Americans d
 o not know how to properly dispose of unused medication\, often flushing i
 t down the toilet or throwing it away - both potential safety and health h
 azards.\n\nDrug take back days and permanent drop boxes also support the g
 oals of the Eco-City Alexandria initiative to promote a place where people
  can live healthier and economically productive lives\, while reducing the
 ir impact on the environment.\n\nThe service is free and anonymous\; no qu
 estions asked.\n\nTo learn more about ways to prevent substance use and mi
