The Osceola County Sheriff’s office, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and other local law enforcement agencies will participate in the National Take Back Initiative on April 22. This one-day effort addresses a vital public safety and health issue – more than 7 million Americans currently abuse prescription drugs. Turning in expired, unwanted or unused prescription and non-prescription drugs helps prevent mistaken use and availability to others. In the Poinciana area the drop off location will be at Poinciana Hospital. Drop off unused prescriptions between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
