(SYOSSET, N.Y.) - To help residents dispose of expired and/or unwanted medication in a secure and environmentally friendly way, Nassau County Legislator Joshua A. Lafazan (D - Woodbury) partnered with the Nassau County Police Department Second Precinct’s Problem-Oriented Policing (POP) Unit to host a prescription drug take-back day at the Syosset Public Library on Thursday, Nov. 10.
“Prescription drug take-back days increase awareness among the general public about the potential abuse of medications and provide residents with a safe, convenient, and responsible means of disposing of prescription drugs,” Legislator Lafazan said. “Thank you to both the Nassau County Second Precinct POP Unit and the Syosset Library for working with us to educate the public about the importance of properly disposing of their unused, unwanted, or expired medications.”
