Prescription drug disposal event coming to Streator City Park

STREATOR – A prescription drug disposal event is coming to Streator City Park on Saturday. Live Well Streator and OSF HealthCare will be offering drive-thru disposal from 9 AM to Noon in the 200 block of North Park Street. You can drop off your unwanted or expired prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs and syringes in a safe sealed container. Labels on the packages need to either by removed or personal information should be blacked out. Medications that are flushed down the toilet or thrown away can contaminate water supplies, so proper disposal is a must.
