Rx and Medication Recycling

The Pharmaceutical Take-Back program allows people to drop-off their unwanted medications, OTC drugs, and prescriptions into designated bins. The program was created in partnership with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, the Summit County Water Quality Committee, and the Summit County Sheriff’s Department.

Never flush pharmaceuticals down the toilet. Flushing or throwing away unwanted medications can cause pollution of our lakes, streams, and water supplies.
