The DEA's Pill Take Back Initiative aims to keep prescription drugs from being abused by collecting and disposing of them when they are no longer needed. Pike County residents with old or unwanted prescription pills can drop them off with a Pike County Sheriff's deputy Saturday, April 27 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in front of Fred's in Zebulon.

The Pike County Sheriff's office is supporting the project and will have a deputy who can pick up the pills Saturday. By keeping the unused pills out of homes, law enforcement officers hope to stop the abuse of prescription and non-prescription drugs in each community.

Huh? Can't a person just flush 'em? I guess I don't get why all this work is done to destroy old pills... is this some kind of trick?

No trick Cats. This is to be continued. Pleezzzzze when you bring the drugs down next time we offer a special smile if you have refills left on the drugs.
