Partnership drug round-up returns to Carson City April 27

Partnership Carson City will host its biannual drug round-up from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, April 27 at four locations.

The initiative aims to raise awareness about the proper disposal and removal of any unused and expired prescription drugs within households.

Partnership Carson City is committed to providing essential education on the proper disposal of unused or expired prescription drugs, over-the-counter products, prescription liquids, pet medications, sharps (syringes) and more.

Join Partnership Carson City and dispose of expired drugs at one of the following locations:

• Save Mart Supermarkets, 3620 N. Carson and 4348 S. Carson St.

• Smith’s Food & Drug Store, 559 E. William St.

• FoodMaxx, 3325 Highway 50 East.

In addition to the drop-off locations, naloxone will be available. Naloxone is a safe medication that can save someone's life by reversing the effects of an opioid overdose.
