Do you need to safely dispose of old medications?

The Drug Take-Back Program through the State of Oregon Department of Environmental Quality makes it more convenient to safely dispose of unwanted prescription and over-the-counter medicines in two ways. There is no charge for either service.

  • Take your unwanted household drugs to a drop-off site: You can take your unwanted medicines to a participating drop-off site and dispose of them in the on-site secure repository. You don’t need to talk to anyone, show ID, or fill out any paperwork to use the drop-off site.

  • Mail-back: You can mail in your unused medication for disposal through a pre-paid, pre-addressed envelope.

You can locate a participating drop-off site and find out how to obtain a pre-paid, pre-addressed envelope by visiting medtakebackoregon.org or calling 844-482-5322 or 844-4-TAKE-BACK.
