The Bonifay, Florida, Police Department has installed a medication disposal kiosk that gives residents a secure way to dispose of unused or expired medications, according to a MyPanhandle.com report. The kiosk, provided by the nonprofit health care organization PanCare of Florida, is available during normal department operating hours.

Police officials said the program is intended to help prevent medications from falling into the wrong hands while also reducing environmental risks associated with improper disposal. The kiosk accepts prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, vitamins, pet medications and prescription patches.
