Prescription Drug Take Back Day

Do you have expired or unused medicine taking up space in your cabinets? On April 27, 2024, you can drop off medicine in pill form at Alps Pharmacy in Nixa from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Please do not bring any aerosol cans, infectious waste, inhalers, liquid medication, or medical needles of any kind – pill medicine only. If you are bringing quantities more than a 13-gallon trash bag, please call ahead at 41-725-2510. If you have any questions, please contact Officer Forgey at 417-725-2510.

Thank you for taking advantage of this opportunity to properly dispose of prescription drugs. Throwing away drugs or flushing them down the sink or toilet leads can impact the safety of our drinking water, so drug take-back day really is the best way to get rid of unwanted medicines.
