Calendar event image

National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day will be Saturday, April 27, 2019 from 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. National Take-Back Day is a safe, convenient, and responsible way to dispose of unused or expired prescription drugs. Drop-offs are anonymous and can be taken to the Cambridge Police Department at 125 6th Street in Cambridge. 




The last Take-Back Day brought in more than 900,000 pounds of unused or expired prescription medication across the country, which brings the total amount of prescription drugs collected by Drug Enforcement Administration since the fall of 2010 to 10,878,950 pounds.
