Operation Safe Return - May 8, 2010

The Medway Drug Enforcement Agency, in cooperation with the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office, Wooster, Orrville, and Rittman Police Departments, and Drug Awareness and Prevention Inc., would like to help you to safely dispose of any outdated or unwanted prescription medications.

Nationally, teenage prescription drug abuse is rapidly increasing, and your family’s MEDICINE CHEST could become a teenager’s best supplier. Help to protect the environment from overdosing on improperly disposed of medications. Collection programs greatly lessen the chance of prescription medications entering the water supply, or the food we eat.
