Northern Kentucky Health Rx Disposal Locator

NKY

The Northern Kentucky Health Department created a map to allow the community to find safe dropoff locations for unused or expired prescription drugs. The map allows users to search for locations nearest to their address and view the address, contact information, and hours of the location. The effort is tied to National Prescription Drug Take Back Day, a nationwide effort led by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. In 2017, Kentucky collected 20, 293 pounds of unused drugs through these locations.
