About National Prescription Drug Disposal Awareness Day
Safety & Security , Health
United States
Ends: May 24, 2025
DESCRIPTION:
Prescription Drug Disposal Awareness Day promotes one message: When you're done using your prescription drug, please get rid of it.
Steve Pasierb, the president of Partnership for a Drug-Free America, states:
"Our research shows that the No. 1 source of medicines that kids abuse is their own home medicine cabinet or a family member or friend's home."
With thousands of cases of death due to an unintentional overdose of prescription drugs each year, disposing of unneeded prescription drugs will eliminate temptation and drastically reduce the number of casualties created by this easily assuaged issue.
Annually on the birthday of Timothy Strain, May 24, 1991. Strain died on August 6, 2009, of an accidental drug overdose of methadone at the age of 18 when his girlfriend's mother accidentally gave him the drug thinking it was the pain killer Percocet. Strain's death could have been avoided had the medication been disposed of properly when no longer in use.
