Directions for Prescription Pill Drop

The Salem Police Department has established a drop box for unused/expired medication as a way for persons to dipose of these medications properly.  The pill drop box is located in the lobby of the Salem Police Department and is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration's National Survey, more than seven million Americans currently abuse prescrition drugs.  The Partnership for a Drug Free America estimates each day, approximately 2,500 teens use prescription drugs to get high for the first time.  Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including the home medicine cabinet.
