Please dispose your unused pharmaceuticals properly! Don't flush them down the toilet or toss them in the trash! Flushed meds are responsible for as many as 2,300 tons of hazardous waste annually, according to the EPA. They can pollute drinking water and harm aquatic species. And putting pharmaceuticals in the trash increases their risk of being abused. There are two drug take-back programs in Kirksville. These are located at the Hyvee Pharmacy on Baltimore and the Adair County Sheriff's Department.
