Don't Flush Medication
Medication
Unwanted, unused and expired medication should never be flushed down the toilet. Once flushed, the medications dissolve in the water and the medication becomes dispersed throughout. The wastewater treatment process is not able to remove all of the medication from the wastewater and therefore the diluted medication can make its way into your tap water, into the streams, rivers, lakes and oceans where it can harm children, adults, animals and the environment.
To properly dispose of your unwanted medication in Susquehanna Township, please take the medication to the Susquehanna Township Police Department and place it in the medication collection bin. This will ensure that your medication never ends up in the water or the environment!
