WISCONSIN— Saturday, Oct. 29 is Drug Take Back Day in Wisconsin.

Unused prescription medication can be stolen, misused or abused. Sometimes, it’s even where addiction gets it start.

Unused and expired medicine should not be flushed down toilets or poured down drains, as it can contaminate the water.

On Saturday, Wisconsinites can safely dispose of drugs at police departments and sheriff’s offices around the state.

When you bring items to a dropbox, there are no questions asked. It normally only takes a couple of minutes to do. 

For a full list of locations accepting drug drop-offs and more information on the collection from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, click here or search our table below.

Several places have permanent take back boxes should someone need to dispose of medicine before or after Drug Take Back day. For more information, click here or search our table below.
