The drug overdose epidemic in the United States is a danger to public health, safety, and a national security threat. That's why the DEA has gotten involved with this take-back program.

They are encouraging the public to remove all unneeded medications from their homes to stop medication misuse. The DEA is wanting to make our communities safer and healthier by reducing overdoses and deaths.
