Medicine Disposal

Dispose of Unwanted or Expired Prescriptions and Over-the-Counter Medicines

Safely dispose of unwanted, expired and unused medicines for FREE at a public drop box. This year-round collection program helps prevent crime and protects the environment. Storing unwanted, expired and unused medicines can lead to drug abuse or poisoning, and medicines flushed down the drain or disposed of in the trash can harm the environment.

The Ramsey County Sheriff's Patrol Station office has a public indoor drobox for unwanted medication. It is located at 1411 Paul Kirkwold Dr., Arden Hills, MN.

You can find other public drop box locations at this link. For more information, visit Ramsey County's Medicine Collection Program webpage.
