This article was archived on 4/26/2026
A prescription drug take-back event is scheduled for residents to properly dispose of unwanted medications and prescription drugs on Saturday, April 25, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Events are scheduled to combat accidental poisoning, overdose, and abuse that can result from unused or expired prescription medications. It is best to properly dispose of medications and not flush them down the toilet. Wastewater treatment plants are not designed to remove the chemicals found in many medications, and these chemicals could discharge into streams if medications are not disposed of properly.
All events will occur at the following Tulsa area locations:
- Elks Lodge Tulsa, 5335 S. Harvard Ave.
- Reasor's (Sharps Site), 7114 S. Sheridan Road
- Reasor’s Owasso, 11815 E. 86th St. N.
- Sand Springs Police Department, 602 W. Morrow Road
