Fulton County Sheriff's Office collects dozens of pounds of drugs on Take Back Day

The Fulton County Sheriff’s Office collected approximately 160 pounds of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs for destruction during the nationwide prescription “Take-Back” on April 22.

 

The Fulton County Sheriff’s Office partnered with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in the initiative to help prevent increased pill abuse and theft.

 

As a reminder, prescription drugs are collected all year long at the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office in the Drug Free Fulton County collection box. The box provides residents with a safe and environmentally responsible way to dispose of unwanted, unused, or expired medication.
