Pharmaceutical waste disposal event October 5

Monroe County Legislator Jackie Smith will be holding a Pharmaceutical Waste Disposal Event on Tuesday, October 5, from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Clarkson Highway Garage, 3623 Lake Road North, Brockport. No appointment required; just drive in and drop off.  

It is recommended that residents take inventory of any medications in the home at least once a year to keep medicine cabinets up to date. Follow these simple steps to be prepared and to ensure safety of at-home medications. Check expiration dates on all products and discard outdated products or any old supplies. Acceptable items for the drop off include pills and liquid medication, prescription and over the counter medication, ointments and creams, sprays and inhalers, empty prescription bottles or vials (labels can be left on the bottles and vials), pet medications, EpiPens, and sharps.
