Medication Take Back Day organizers report that Marion County’s fifteenth semiannual collection on Saturday, was a success in spite of the season’s first snow and a change in location. 163 vehicles drove through Evers Arena at the Marion County Fairgrounds, along with two walk-ins, discarding 228 pounds of unused pills, liquids, syringes, and lancets. Ten MARMET officers handled discarded medication on Saturday, with three pharmacy students from Ohio Northern University, OhioHealth pharmacy resident Charlie Christie, and pharmacy technician Karen Hawk on hand to identify specific controlled substances. Ohio Health Pharmacist Dan Sheridan, one of the original Medication Disposal Day organizers from 2010, praised citizens who dropped off their medications at this event.
