Good Samaritan to Host Drug Take Back Day Tuesday

Good Samaritan Hospital in Vincennes will host a drug take back day on Tuesday from 4:00 until 7:00 pm under the awning at the 6th street entrance.

The event gives the public a chance to safely dispose of unwanted medications and take an active part in preventing potential drug abuse and misuse in the community.

Good Samaritan will accept vitamins, prescription medication, prescription patches, prescription ointments, pet medication and over-the-counter medication.

Items that won’t be accepted include needles, inhalers, thermometers, aerosol cans, lotions or liquids and hydrogen peroxide.
