The statewide Drug Turn-In Day is being coordinated by The Oregon Medical Association Alliance, Community Action to Reduce Substance Abuse (CARSA) and Oregon Partnership.

“The whole idea is to prevent drug abuse by keeping these drugs out of the wrong hands and to discard them safely,” says Leanna Lindquist, President, Oregon Medical Association Alliance. “We’re hoping that this event will shed light on the public safety
and environmental aspects of discarding prescription drugs that are no longer needed.”

Turn-in sites will collect (in original containers, if possible):

  • Expired or unwanted prescription drugs
  • Drugs no longer need
  • Unknown tablets and capsules
