Prescription Drug Take-Back Day April 28 in Pinedale
April 25, 2018

The Sublette County Sheriff's Office, in partnership with Altitude Drug and the Prevention Management Organization, will host a prescription drug take back day on Saturday, April 28th in Pinedale. Community members are invited to come to Altitude Drug from 10:00 AM-2:00 PM and confidentially and securely dispose of unused or unwanted prescriptions.

The Sheriff Office will have a deputy on site to answer questions on local drop boxes and additional safe disposal of medications.

Deterra at home safe prescription drug disposal kits will also be provided for community members to take home provided by the Wyoming Department of Health.

If you are unable to make the prescription take-back time on Saturday, April 28th at Altitude Drug, there are a couple options for safe disposal of your medications. The Wyoming Medication Donation Program (WMDP) reduces medication waste and improves access for low-income Wyoming residents who lack adequate prescription coverage. The WMDP provides immediate prescription help by re-dispensing acceptable donated medications and providing advice on lower cost alternatives.

Also, the Sublette County Sheriff's Office participates in an ongoing drug disposal program. The program is designed for citizens to safely and confidentially dispose of unused and expired prescriptions and over the counter medications by placing them in a secure prescription drug drop box. Sublette County has three drop boxes for disposal throughout the county.

They are located at:
Altitude Drug
709 W. Pine Street
Pinedale, WY

40 S. Fremont Avenue
