accept all medicines. These law enforcement offices pay for the disposal of their collected medicines out of their own budgets. We encourage them to collect all medicines, but it is their decision what they collect and pay themselves to dispose. For a list

containers that are viewed, by the agencies, as outside the realm of the intended use of the program. Examples would include vitamins, over-the-counter meds etc...
