The Hodgenville Police Department and the Livin’ Well LaRue Coalition are partnering with local pharmacies to give area residents the opportunity to safely dispose of expired or unneeded medications.
Hodgenville Police Chief James Richardson said making pharmacies available as a drop off site is less intimidating for some residents.
“We’ve always had a pill return,” Richardson said. “I’ve been here for 12 years, and it was here before I got here, so we’ve always had that option at the police department, but kind of like with the Narcan that we started offering free at the police department, folks sometimes don’t want to come to the police to drop off drugs and stuff.”
All three pharmacies in LaRue County are participating.
“What we’ve done is we purchased two drop boxes and furnished those free of charge to the two pharmacies that didn’t have one, and then the police department has taken on the responsibility to empty those once a month, and then we dispose of the drugs,” Richardson said.
Richardson said many of the pills illegally obtained on the street were originally legally prescribed and obtained, and families often are left with medication from a loved one when they die.
“A lot of people just toss them in the trash or flush them down the toilet, or they don’t know what to do with it, so we’re happy to be able to give them the opportunity to have somewhere safe so we can dispose of it properly so it doesn’t wind up in the hand of somebody that doesn’t deserve it or it gets into the environment and does damage that way,” Richardson said.
The HPD says the first emptying of the drop boxes netted 21.6 pounds of pills.
