Saturday is National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day, and multiple collection sites across the country are available for people to drop off unneeded or expired medications.

The DEA says that National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day "addresses a crucial public safety and public health issue."

You can take your prescription drugs to the following UH locations:

  • UH Ahuja
  • UH Lake West
  • UH Portage
  • UH Tripoint

University Hospitals will also provide no-cost health screenings and will offer free Narcan kits and fentanyl test strips.
