I'm not sure the best board to post this on, so if you think it belongs on another board, please feel free to copy the info:

For those of us with extra prescriptions that we have left over and want to get rid of, and either don't want to or really shouldn't dispose of in the trash can or in the toilet, the DEA Office of Diversion Control is sponsoring the 7th National Prescription Drug Take Back Day next Saturday, October 26, from 10 AM to 2 PM at a lot of locations around the country. I have a lot of Coumadin left over from surgery and it isn't safe to dispose of by flushing it in the toilet nor do I just want to throw it away. So I can take it back to one of the sites in my area and get it out of my house. I'm sure there are other things (I think I also have a few other scripts in the same boat) that should also be disposed of this way. They will dispose of them properly. Here's a link to the program where you can look up locations near you where you can take back any prescriptions you want to get rid of.
