World Health Day feels like a good time to notice all that clutter quietly collecting in your medicine cabinet. Between expired prescriptions, half-used bottles, and mystery pills… it adds up faster than we realize.
With DEA National Prescription Drug Take Back Day coming up on April 26, now is the perfect time to do a quick, meaningful reset.
Here’s how to get started:
✔️ Pull everything out and check expiration dates
✔️ Safely set aside unused or expired medications
✔️ Group items by category (daily meds, first aid, cold/flu, etc.)
✔️ Wipe down shelves before putting items back
Then—take that bag of unused medications to a local drop-off site and clear the clutter responsibly. Find a list of STL-area pharmacies below in the first comment (Facebook only).👇
