Saturday marks the national Prescription Drug Take Back Day for the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.
In the metro Atlanta area, Kroger pharmacies will host events to take in the unused or expired prescriptions so they can be safely disposed of.
At each location, Kroger said local law enforcement officers will be on site to accept unused or expired pills, liquids, gels and patches outside of stores. No medications can be accepted inside.
The events will go from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, so Kroger says to “get ready to go through your medicine cabinets” and bring the meds on down for disposal.
