The Week of Monday, June 7

What do you do with your unused prescriptions?  It was once common practice to flush unused or expired prescription, over-the-counter, and pet medications down the toilet.  Medications can include hormones, antidepressants, antibiotics, pain relievers, cold/flu remedies and antiseptics.   We learned the hard way that this practice is very bad because they end up in our ground water and ruin our environment.   Now you can safely and anonymously dispose of unused drugs and sharps (needles) at specified drop off points in the South Bay, no questions asked.   For the nearest location, give us a call at (310) 371-7222.
