Prescription drug abuse is one of the biggest substance abuse issues in our town and nation. Did you know that most youth who abuse "pills" and cough syrups get the medication from the medicine cabinets of relatives and friends? You can help solve this problem by dropping your unused medication off for safe disposal on Sat., April 30, 10 AM to 2 PM at Carlsbad Police Department, corner of Guadalupe and Mermod Streets.

This service is free, easy and anonymous. Drive up. Drop off. That's it!
