In cooperation with the Lewis County Sheriffâs Department, the United Prevention Coalition of Lewis County is sponsoring a National Prescription Take Back Drug Day from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. today.
There will be two drive-thru drop-off locations â at the Lowville Fire Hall and the Lyons Falls Gym parking lot. Community members are encouraged to drive up and drop off any unused or expired medications and in return receive a goodie bag sponsored by many agencies and nonprofits in Lewis County.
âRecent data shows that 22 percent of Lewis County residents are throwing expired medication in the trash and 23 percent of them also stated they are flushing medications,â Coalition Coordinator Cassie Forbus said. âHaving a Take Back Drug Day keeps medications out of the hands of the youth as well as saves our landfills and water supply.â
