Second Operation Medicine Cabinet Event Planned

Following the overwhelming success of Southern Nevada’s first Operation Medicine Cabinet event in February, a coalition of local organizations have come together for a second event to collect unused and expired prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs from the public.

Unused and expired medications will be collected anonymously and with no-questions-asked for safe and proper disposal during the one-day, drive-through event from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 14 in the parking lot of Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s Northwest Area Command, located at 9850 West Cheyenne in Las Vegas.

Southern Nevadans are encouraged to participate and help prevent the tragic consequences of drug misuse and abuse.
