Visit the Peer Outreach Coordinator's table to receive a Deterra® Drug Deactivation and Disposal Pouch along with educational materials to help combat the opioid crisis.

During Mental Health Awareness Month, CCPL in partnership with the Charles County Department of Health is helping to get expired, old and unused prescription medications out of the community. Pick up a free Deterra® Drug Deactivation Pouch to safely and effectively dispose of prescription medications. One bag per household. While supplies last.

According to Deterra® Drug Deactivation System, "Unused prescription drugs pose a risk of misuse and accidental poisoning, but improper disposal can harm the environment and contaminate our water supply.  Deterra® Pouches are a convenient, environmentally sound option for proper drug disposal right at home"

The Deterra® Drug Deactivation and Disposal System is a safe medication disposal pouch or container that can be used at home or in a clinical setting. It is the safest, most effective choice used to destroy and properly dispose of unused, unwanted and expired medications with the simple addition of tap water. (from Naco.org)
