Operation Medicine Cabinet

Hand Holding Pills

Operation Medicine Cabinet is a medication disposal program.

Medicines in the home are one of the leading causes of accidental poisoning. When flushed or thrown in the trashcan, they end up polluting our waters. Rates of prescription drug abuse are alarmingly high - over half of teens abusing medicines get them from a family member or friend, including the home medicine cabinet, and often without their knowledge.

Drop-off

Drop-off is completely anonymous and no questions will be asked. Medications may be returned in any container or removed from the original pill bottles for increased privacy. Unwanted prescription, over the counter, and vitamins or other nutritional supplements will be accepted.

Medications may be dropped at the front desk of the Garland County Sheriff’s Office at 525 Ouachita Avenue, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. (excluding holidays).
