Next Drug Take Back Day scheduled for Oct. 23
These twice-yearly events provide a safe, convenient and responsible means of disposing of prescription drugs, while also educating people about the potential for abuse of medications, including opioids. At the most recent Drug Take Back Day in April, 839,543 pounds of drugs were collected nationwide. People can find a drug disposal facility near them that’s participating in Drug Take Back Day by checking out the DEA’s search tool.** And our Opioids 101 site provides a variety of resources, including flyers and brochures, that you can use to help educate your patients about opioids. **Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan doesn’t own or control this website. |
