🐾 Spring is here... and so is flea and tick season!

If you're digging out your pet's medication this spring, take a peek in that cabinet. Got expired flea treatments, old heartworm pills, or leftover prescriptions from a previous pet? Don't toss them in the trash or flush them down the drain.

Our program accepts pet medications (along with your own expired or unused prescriptions) at 300+ participating pharmacies across Nebraska. It's completely FREE and takes just a few minutes.

Today is National Safety Dose Day, a reminder that prescription medication safety can be a matter of life and death.

Did you know that nearly 20% of patients prescribed opioids for pain will develop a dependence? Many don't even realize it's happening.

Here's what you can do today:
✅ Follow your prescription exactly as written
✅ Never share or borrow medications
✅ Safely dispose of unused pills (see Nebraska MEDS)
✅ Keep NARCAN® on hand (just in case)

Because prevention starts before an overdose ever happens.

Nebraska MEDS makes it simple to dispose of expired or unused medications before your party:
✅ 300+ drop-off pharmacies statewide
✅ Opioids and controlled substances accepted
✅ 100% free, no questions asked

Celebrate your grad. Protect your guests. Dispose of those leftover meds first. Find a location near you at leftovermeds.com

Dispose of expired or unused medication (especially opioid prescriptions) for FREE at any of our participating pharmacies. It's the best way to make sure they don't get misused.

Historically, more than 1 in 10 teens ages 12–17 used an illicit drug in the past year – and half of all young people who misuse prescription opioids get them from friends or family. Help get those numbers to drop. Locking up medications and talking early about the risks of misuse makes a difference.

Keep meds safe. Start the conversation.
