National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day



The Levy County Sheriff's Office in partnership with the Levy County Prevention Coalition will be participating in the Federal Drug Enforcement Agency's National Prescription Drug Take Back Initiative.

This year's event will be held at the Levy County Sheriff’s Office on Saturday April 26th, 2014, from 10:00AM until 2:00 PM. Sheriff’s Deputies will be present to accept all medications. The collection site will be located at the South Entrance to the Levy County Sheriff’s Office complex located at 9150 NE 80 Ave., Bronson, Fl 32621.

Participants are encouraged to bring in prescription medications that are no longer used, out of date, or medications from loved ones who have passed away. Medications can be loose or in containers.
Participants will be able to drive in and drop medications off into boxes provided without having to exit their vehicles.

Please join us in participating in this important initiative to keep unwanted or unneeded medications off our streets.
