<div>Amy,</div>
<div>IL pharmacies can take back controlled & non-controlled meds. But given the cost of disposal, most of them aren't. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>IL EPA keeps a list of take-back programs in IL (most are law enforcement-based programs). <a href="http://www.epa.illinois.gov/topics/waste-management/waste-disposal/medication-disposal/locations/index">http://www.epa.illinois.gov/topics/waste-management/waste-disposal/medication-disposal/locations/index</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And the Yellow Jug Old Drugs program, which is pharmacy-based and is now able to collect controlled substances, is starting to grow in IL. <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?msa=0&mid=zFsGFFT7Z6UM.kc7QFrTyoboo">https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?msa=0&mid=zFsGFFT7Z6UM.kc7QFrTyoboo</a></div>

<div>Let me know if you have more questions.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I wanted to check and see what the status was in IL regarding pharmacies being able to take back meds under the new federal law. Can they take back controls and non-controls, just non-controls, or no meds at all?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If pharmacies can take back meds, are there any that are currently participating?<o:p></o:p></p>
