It’s time to get rid of your outdated or unused medications! The Drug Enforcement Agency, the Guilford County Sheriff’s Office, Healthy Guilford, Alcohol and Drug Services (ADS), and Safe Guilford are working together to sponsor another medication disposal initiative.

Please note the dates and locations below where you can turn in expired medication. The program begins March 18th and runs through March 23rd. Prescription medication is very important in helping people get well or managing an illness, but it also presents a special problem in our society with prescribed meds often being misdirected or misused.

The Guilford County Medication Disposal Program is a great way to reduce the availability of medications that are no longer used and that may have become outdated. Thank you for your participation in keeping our community safer from the dangers of medication misuse.
