The City of Cuyahoga Falls will host a drug take-back event on Saturday, April 22, 2023, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the rear entrance of the Police Department on the west side of City Hall, 2310 Second Street.

The goal of the event, held on National Drug Take-Back Day, is to collect expired, unwanted, or unused medication from residents to help make the community safer. Needles and liquids will not be accepted.

“Unused and expired prescriptions in the home are a public safety issue,” said Mayor Don Walters. “I encourage all Cuyahoga Falls residents to properly dispose of their medications to protect our residents and our environment.”

In addition to Drug Take-Back Day, residents may drop off unused and expired medication 24/7 at the drug disposal drop box located in the lobby of the Cuyahoga Falls Police Department.
