Drug Take Back:

On April 27^th the Wisconsin Department of Justice in conjunction with the Drug Enforcement Administration will coordinate a prescription drug take back initiative throughout Wisconsin. The focus will be on removing potentially dangerous pharmaceutical substances from our state’s medicine cabinets and preventing them from going into our water supply.

This effort will continue to bring focus to the issue of  prescription painkiller abuse in Wisconsin. Drug Take Back Day provides a safe, convenient and responsible means of disposal, while also educating the community about the potential abuse and consequences of improper storage and disposal of these medications.

For the safe disposal of medications, you can drop them in our drop box located in the lobby of the Safety Building located at 840 Clermont Street, Antigo.

This week, allow some time to clean out the medicine cabinet and bring any used or unused pharmaceuticals to the Police Department and place them in the box so they can be properly destroyed.
