The Sweetwater County Sheriff’s Office announced today its participation once again in a U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration-sponsored, nationwide prescription drug “take-back” initiative that seeks to prevent increased prescription drug abuse and theft.
The Sheriff’s Office collection site on Saturday will be the Sheriff’s Office North Substation on Yellowstone Road near the Sweetwater County Fairgrounds, north of Rock Springs, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM. People need only bring in their no-longer-needed prescriptions. The service is free and anonymous, with no forms or paperwork, and no questions asked.
Haskell noted a number of items that cannot be accepted for collection: needles and sharps, mercury (thermometers), oxygen containers, chemotherapy/radioactive substances, pressured containers and illicit drugs (street drugs).
Collection sites around Wyoming can be found by going to the Drug Enforcement Administration website at www.dea.gov.
