Mallinckrodt’s Hobart plant recently sent a gift to the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office.

Now located near the front door in the lobby of the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office and Public Safety Building in Delhi is a prescription drug take-back collection box. In it people may safely and legally dispose of unused or unwanted prescription drugs. The secure box is available 24/7.

The box may be utilized to dispose of prescription medications. Needles and liquid medicine are not to be discarded in the box.
