LOCATION
Keeping unused or expired medications at home can be unsafe for children, pets, and adults. Whether accidental poisoning or intentional misuse, you can prevent these potential harms by safely disposing of prescription drugs you no longer need. To provide a safe, convenient, and responsible means of disposing of prescription drugs, Somerville is hosting two staffed events for National Prescription Drug Take Back Day offering drop-off services and more.
On Saturday, April 25, Somerville residents are invited to participate by stopping at the drop-off locations. Staff from Somerville’s Community, Help, Outreach, and Recovery (COHR) unit of Somerville Police Department and the City’s Prevention Services division will also be onsite to provide prevention information and resources including free Narcan and fentanyl test strips.
Drop off or stop by at two locations from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.:
- Public Safety Headquarters at 220 Washington Street
- Teele Square Fire Station at 6 Newbury St.
For bottled medications, residents should remove or scratch out any personal information while leaving the name of the medication visible before disposing. Please make sure caps to liquid medications are secure.
Year-round drop-off location:
In addition to this event, Somerville offers 24/7, year-round disposal for unneeded prescription medications at the Somerville Public Safety Building (220 Washington Street).
For more information, please contact Jennifer Korn at jkorn@police.somerville.ma.us or Prevention Services Director, Tina Los at tlos@somervillema.gov.
