Although Saturday is being spotlighted, all law enforcement locations in Snohomish County take back controlled substances on weekdays. (The Lynnwood Police Department is open seven days a week.)
All sites will accept unwanted vitamins, pet medications, over-the-counter medications, inhalers, and unopened EpiPens. You should leave items in their original containers.
The drug-return program supports the Drug Enforcement Administration’s initiative to combat misuse of prescription drugs.
