HARRISBURG – The PA Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs or DDAP is encouraging Pennsylvanians to take part in the Drug Enforcement Administration’s National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day initiative happening tomorrow which fights prescription drug misuse by creating convenient ways to dispose of medication. In addition to the Prescription Drug Take-Back Days, PA offers year-round opportunities to dispose of medication through DDAP’s Prescription Drug Take-Back Program locations. There are nearly 900 DDAP drug take-back boxes available year-round for residents to use. More than 1.5 million pounds of prescription medication have been destroyed across 67 PA counties. We have a link where you can find a DDAP location near you by clicking on the banner below. For more information on National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day, visit takebackday.dea.gov.
