It provides a list of pharmacies, hospitals and other DEA registrants that been approved as authorized collectors for controlled substances and other medicines, however, those sites may or may not have an active drop box program. Whenever I’ve looked in to details on the DEA’s list, I’ve found pharmacy locations that are not currently operating a medicine take-back program. Either they haven’t started their program yet, or they have discontinued the program. Therefore, I don’t recommend the DEA database as a good search engine for the public. It is a useful tool for verifying that a collector is DEA authorized.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose'>The </span><a href="http://www.TakeBackYourMeds.org"><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose'>www.TakeBackYourMeds.org</span><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose'></span></a><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose'> website is primarily for Washington state, with just a few locations listed in other NW state (not a comprehensive list).

Whomever is managing the drop-off site database has to be regularly in contact with those locations about details that may change such as accessible hours and types of medicines accepted. It’s a lot of person-to-person outreach. A national “search engine” to pull data from all these state and local sources will only be as accurate as the local data. Dedicated resources will be needed to help with those local cataloguing efforts.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailEndCompose'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><p
