Belmont Police - Drug Take-Back Initiative

Saturday, October 26th from 10AM to 2PM

Prescription Drug Take-Back Initiative

 

 

          The Belmont Police Department in conjunction with the Belmont Auxiliary Police and the DEA will be hosting a Prescription Drug Take-Back Initiative to prevent the abuse and theft of old, unused and expired prescription drugs. Unfortunately, these drugs are highly susceptible to misuse by family and friends. In addition they can be improperly disposed of and end up in our environment, posing a potential health hazard.

          Drugs can be dropped off at the Belmont Police Station located at 40 Woodland St. on Saturday October 26th from 10:00AM – 2:00PM.  Old or unused prescription drugs (No liquids) may be dropped off for free with no questions asked.  Please take some time to check your medicine cabinet and visit us on the 26th.  For more information on the Rx Drug Take Back Initiative or a list of additional collection sites visit www.dea.gov . You may also contact Lt. Daley at kdaley@belmontpd.org. for additional information or any questions.
