Paris, TX – Paris Regional Health invites all community members to visit their Drug Take Back box in the main lobby of the hospital on Saturday, October 26 between 10 am – 2 pm to safely discard of unused or expired prescription drugs.
The Drug Enforcement Administration’s (DEA) National Prescription Drug Take Back Day provides a
reminder for us all to look through our medicine cabinets and take unused or expired prescription
medications to a safe location for disposal to reduce accidental misuse, drug addiction and overdose
deaths. Results from the last Take Back Day in April show that 335 tons of medication were collected
nationwide.
“Paris Regional Health is proud to provide this public health service to our community and region,”
Director of Pharmacy, Erin Moody said. “We have seen an incredible response to the event the past few
years and hope to see many of you on October 26. Please, park in the front parking lot (facing Loop 286)
and enter the hospital through the main doors (located under the covered drive-through). To your right,
you will see our green drug take back box on the wall. We ask that you do not go to the ER with your
items as our box is not located there. Thank you for your partnership in our mission of Making
Communities Healthier!”
