Farmington Hills Police DepartmentFarmington Hills Police Department Participates in Controlled Substance Take-Back Initiative On Saturday, October 29 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the Farmington Hills Police Department will partner with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to coordinate a one-day Controlled Substance Take-Back Initiative. This collaborative effort will safely and anonymously remove potentially dangerous controlled substances (any medication requiring a prescription) from homes across the nation. A collection box provided by the DEA will be located inside Farmington Hills Police Headquarters at 31655 Eleven Mile Road. The drop off and pick up of pharmaceuticals will be supervised by officials from both the DEA and the Police Department. Pharmaceuticals do not need to be in original labeled packaging, any type of container is acceptable. Residents of any city can use the collection box at the Farmington Hills Police Department. The national Controlled Substance Take-Back Initiative will provide an opportunity for the public to get rid of pharmaceutical controlled substances and other medications for safe destruction by law enforcement officers. Disposal of the materials will be accomplished in accordance with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations. A recent National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) estimates there are currently 6.2 million non-medical users of psychotherapeutic drugs in the United States. The NSDUH survey further indicates that there are more Americans abusing psychotherapeutic drugs than the number of cocaine, heroin, and hallucinogen abusers combined. Expired, unused, or unwanted controlled substances in our homes are a potential source of supply that fuels this abuse and are an unacceptable risk to public health and safety.
