Tips to Prevent Prescription Drug Abuse at Home

The National Prescription Drug Take Back Day aims to provide a safe, convenient, and responsible means of disposing of prescription drugs. Prescription drug abuse has reached epidemic proportions across the U.S. According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, more than 6 million Americans abuse prescription drugs, and much of the abuse begins at home.
