Waukesha County Drug Disposal Locations
Do you know what’s in your medicine cabinet, on your nightstand or kitchen counter, or in your purse? Naturally, you keep prescription medicines and cold and cough remedies handy for when they are needed. However, that makes them handy for everyone else to take without you knowing it.
LOCK UP YOUR MEDS
Only 4.7% of individuals who abuse prescription drugs say they get the medication from a stranger, drug dealer, or the internet. Prevent your children from abusing your medications by securing them in places they cannot access. Lock them up or take them out of your house.
TAKE INVENTORY
Use a home medication inventory card to record the name and amount of medications you currently have. Check regularly to make sure none are missing.
EDUCATE YOURSELF AND YOUR CHILDREN
Learn about the most commonly abused types of medications (pain relievers, sedatives, stimulants, and tranquilizers). Then, communicate the dangers of abusing these medications to your children regularly; ONCE IS NOT ENOUGH. SET CLEAR RULES AND MONITOR BEHAVIOR. Do not allow your child to take prescription drugs without a prescription. Monitor your child’s behaviors to ensure that rules are being followed. Lead by example!
PASS IT ON
Share your knowledge, experiences and support with the parents of your child’s friends. Work together to ensure that your children are safe and healthy.
