KINGSTON – The National Prescription Drug Take Back Day is Saturday, April 22 and the City of Kingston will hold a local drug collection at the Andy Murphy Neighborhood Center from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The drugs collected will be properly disposed of with the Albany DEA Office.
No needles or injectables – including EpiPens, Etc., will be accepted.
“This event will not only help get unused and potentially dangerous prescriptions out of your home and the reach of children, but is also a great way to contribute/celebrate Earth Day,” said Mayor Steven Noble. “By properly disposing of prescription drugs, we are keeping these chemicals ands toxins out of our wastewater streams.”
