99th Medical Support Squadron hosts Drug Take Back Day
The 99th Medical Support Squadron Pharmacy will be hosting a Drug Take Back Day April 25 and 26 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Nellis Air Force Base Exchange. The pharmacy will accept any tablets, capsules, inhalers, topical ointments, eye drops, liquids and over the counter medication; but will not accept any syringes or sharp items (needles, insulin vials and sharps containers) for safety precautions. Proper disposal of medication reduces the chances of a family member or friend abusing medication, or a person misdiagnosing themselves or others and taking an incorrect medication which could lead to accidental poisoning and even death.
