Prescription Drug Take-Back Day

Citizens are encouraged to drop off their unused, unwanted or expired medications, including over the counter medications, for safe disposal.  The Latah County Sheriff’s Office has been holding drug take back days semi-annually since 2012 and collects upwards of forty pounds of medications at each event.  These medications are sent to the Drug Enforcement Agency for safe destruction.  This event is made possible due to funding from the Latah County Youth Advocacy Council.  For more information on the drug take back day, please contact the Latah County Sheriff’s Office at (208) 882-2216.
