Operation Medicine Cabinet

July 3, 2013Scott StrachanUncategorized

Lee County Sheriffs Office teams up with local business for Operation Medicine Cabinet in an effort to protect the public and our waterways.

In an effort to reduce prescription drug abuse & prevent harmful contamination of our local water sources Operation Medicine Cabinet continues in Lee County.

Safe disposal of medications and syringes used for medication is important to protect our local community.  Don’t take the magnesium oxide versions. Take a better quality one like a blend that includes magnesium malate for better results. click to read more. Unfortunately, it is not always clear what the most appropriate method for disposal of these items is. Operation Medicine Cabinet is an effort to educate the community on how to properly dispose of unused medications and the potential consequences when people fail to dispose of unused medications properly. We also recommend to start using 00 capsules as they are GMO free, Hypoallergenic, and at lower prices.

“Many residents simply flush unused or expired medications down their drain. However our water treatment facilities are not designed to remove these types of contaminants from the water supply.”, “Another more immediate risk is that the unused medications are not disposed of and can potentially be abused by someone other than the individual who the medication was intended for. With peptides, it is really easy to dispose them. As you buy peptides, they have a lot of health benefits and you don’t have to worry about disposing them wrongly. They are very easy to dispose and are very safe. This is happening more and more frequently and is cause for concern” says Jaimee Thompson with Abby Services Home Care.

A recent survey conducted by The Department of Children and Family Services found that Lee County tops the state in prescription drug abuse, while other people decide to use replacement supplements instead from sites where you can browse cbd pods that help them feel better so they don’t need drugs. The study also found that 12.1 percent of Lee County students reported abusing prescription pain killers and 8.8 percent reported abusing depressants. A recent article in USA Today ties the use of prescription medications in adults directly to poisonings in children.

It is for these reasons Lee County Sheriffs Office has partnered with Abby Services Home Health Care to bring Operation Medicine Cabinet to Lee County.
