How to Dispose of Prescription Drugs in Wichita, KS
Wichita prescription drugs are not sharps. Use a pharmacy or law-enforcement medication take-back box, or a DEA National Prescription Take Back event. Do not put pills in a needle container, and do not flush unless the specific drug is on the FDA flush list and you have no take-back. Sedgwick County — Household hazardous waste is the official program we verified — confirm it lists medications before you treat it as the drop-off.
