A good way to get rid of old, or unused medications.
Here is the Press Release from the TAPD:
The Texarkana Arkansas Police Department is getting the word out early to our community for the 22nd Drug Take-Back Program coming up on Saturday, October 23, 2021.
We have teamed up with the Drug Enforcement Agency (D.E.A.), so the received drugs can be disposed of properly, and Harbor House Prevention. Some of our officers will be present at Texarkana Emergency Center located at 4646 Cowhorn Creek Rd in Texarkana, Texas. The officers will begin receiving drop-offs at 8:00 am and end at 12:00 (Noon.) If this time frame does not work for some, the drug drop-off bins are always available at three locations in our area. Texarkana Emergency Center, Bi-State Center, and the Miller County Sheriff’s Office.
Individuals that want to dispose of any medications can simply drive up on this date and during the listed times and simply drop these off to our officers without even getting out of their vehicle.
The following items cannot be accepted: synergies or any type of sharps, inhalers, aerosol cans, mercury thermometers, and iodine containing medications.
