The Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Department, Tuolumne County Opioid Safety Coalition, YES Partnership and the DEA are providing a safe and confidential way for members of our community to rid their homes of unused or expired medication.
At the Junction Shopping Center – look for the booth near the Sheriff’s Community Service Unit and Bear’s Garden Florist. The Junction is located at the corner of Mono Way and Tuolumne Road, Sonora, CA. Look for signs!
-Participants are encouraged to drop off all prescribed and over the counter medication EXCEPT for intravenous solutions, injectables and syringes.
-Participants are encouraged to remove medications from their containers prior to disposal – but liquid products, such as cough syrup, should remain sealed in their original container.
-All participants will remain anonymous and no record of dropped off medications will be maintained.
-A Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Deputy will be on scene to provide security for the participants and for the controlled substances.
One common source for abused prescription medications is the home medicine cabinet. Don’t be part of America’s drug abuse problem. Be part of the solution. Get rid of unused medications.
