Over 1018 Pounds of unused, unneeded, or expired medication were collected and disposed of Saturday, October 24th in Greater Manchester across many Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Take Back Day locations! To put it into perspective, that’s more than a grand piano in pounds of medication.
If you missed this year’s Take Back Day, don’t worry. You don’t have to wait until April for the next one to make a difference! Makin’ It Happen provides Deterra Drug Deactivation Bags to each community in Greater Manchester year-round.
