DeSoto County Sheriff’s Office Partners with DEA for National Prescription Drug Takeback Day
The DeSoto County Sheriff’s Office is teaming up with the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) for National Prescription Drug Takeback Day this Saturday, October 26th.
Residents are invited to safely dispose of unused or expired medications between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM at the designated drop-off location outside the East Parking Lot at the Sheriff’s Office, located at 208 E Cypress St., Arcadia, FL 34266. This event provides a safe and responsible way to prevent prescription drug misuse and ensure these substances do not fall into the wrong hands.
In addition to the Takeback Day event, the Sheriff’s Office offers a 24/7 drop box for safe and anonymous disposal of medications. This service is available year-round to help residents play an active role in combating prescription drug misuse in the community.
