Harrison police will hold a drug take-back event Thursday for township residents.

“Medicine that languishes in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse or abuse and flushing them or throwing them away present potential safety and health hazards,” said Harrison police Chief Mike Klein.

Unwanted or out-of-date prescriptions and over-the-counter drugs will be collected. Needles and hazardous materials will not.

The collection is only for conventional pills, capsules or liquid medications, Klein said.

The collection will be from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the township meeting room at One Municipal Drive.
