Medication Takeback Day

Dispose of your medications safely at the Medication Takeback Day on April 28. The Cambridge Public Health Department (CPHD), the Cambridge Police Department, and the Cambridge Council on Aging are coming together to host a special medication “Takeback” event at the Cambridge Senior Center on Monday, April 28 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Personnel will be available on-site in the lobby to accept unwanted or unused prescriptions, over-the-counter meds, and vitamins. Sharps, liquids, and creams/ointments will NOT be accepted.

If you’re unable to make it to this event, you have several other options for safely disposing of your old medications. 

For any questions about the event or safe medication disposal year-round, please contact Danielle McPeak, the CPHD Prevention and Recovery Specialist, at [email protected].
