PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION DISPOSAL

 

Old medications should never be disposed of down the toilet.  Water treatment facilities do not test or treat for medications.  There is a National problem with old medications showing up in the waterways below water treatment facilities.

Do your part and dispose of your old medications properly.  If you are unable to bring them to one of the Police Stations listed below, then dispose of your medications in your trash on the day of collection.  For more information, call the Salt Lake Valley Health Department at 313-6745.
