DEMING – The Deming Police Department is participating in a nationwide Drug Enforcement Administration initiative Saturday to get outdated prescription drugs out of homes.
Officials say unused prescription drugs often become part of the illegal substance abuse problem in a community.
Residents are encouraged to drop off their unused, unwanted or expired prescription drugs in a collection box to be set up at Walmart, 1021 E. Pine Street, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday.
Only pills or patches will be accepted; Drug Take Back Day facilities cannot accept any liquid medications, needles or syringes.
Again, a drop-off box for unwanted or outdated prescription pills or patches will be set up at the Deming Walmart this Saturday, Oct. 26th, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
The service is free and anonymous; no questions asked.
