do your part

The easiest way for you and your neighbors to fight back against the drug epidemic is by safely disposing of your unused and unneeded medication at one of the drug-drop off locations listed below. District Attorney Michael E. McMahon has funded “MedSafe” containers at four independent pharmacies across Staten Island in addition to containers at each of Staten Island’s four NYPD Precincts. This is the only sure-fire way to dispose of your old pills in an environmentally safe manner!
