The DEA is holding its next Prescription Drug Take Back Day this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Take Back Day is designed to give people a chance to get rid of their unneeded and unwanted medication at drop-off sites.

The last Take Back Day was in October 2022 when the DEA collected 647,000 pounds of medications.
