(Lansing, MI) – Michigan State Police will take part in the National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on Saturday. All 31 MSP posts will have their doors open from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. to collect unused or expired prescription pills with no questions asked. Troopers say unused medications are among the most common entry points for people to misuse the drugs and also pose environmental risks when they are improperly disposed.

Also in Ottawa County:

 Medication Takeback Event this Saturday, April 25, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM. This is a safe, free, and anonymous way to dispose of medications you no longer need.

Cleaning out your medicine cabinet helps prevent drug misuse and protects our local water supplies.

Event Details:

  • Location: Corewell Health Zeeland Hospital, 8333 Felch St, Zeeland, MI 49464
  • Time: 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM

What You Can Bring:

  • Prescription and over-the-counter medications
  • Controlled and non-controlled substances
