Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration launched new animated
Remove the Risk public service announcements (PSAs), available in English and Spanish, on safe opioid disposal. These PSAs supplement a suite of free digital resources—PSAs, social media images and posts, fact sheets, and more—designed to help groups speak with others about safe opioid disposal. Safe disposal of prescription drugs such as opioids remains a challenging topic for industry, health professionals and patients alike. As we continue to spend more time at home, it’s more important than ever to encourage community members to safely dispose of expired or unused prescription pain medicines from their homes. Education about safe drug disposal can reduce the chance of accidental or intentional ingestion and save lives.
Please help us spread the word about how to Remove the Risk by sharing these resources as you’re able. For more information visit our
drug disposal webpage or contact us via email at
druginfo@fda.hhs.gov or phone at 855-543-3784 or 301-796-3400.
