Saturday Is Prescription Drug Take Back Day

News

April 19th, 2023 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – National Prescription Drug Take Back Day is this Saturday from 10 a-m until 2 p-m. The D-E-A’s Emily Murray says the majority of people who have misused prescription medications in the past got them from family members or friends or they stole them from a family member or friend. Murray says. two-thirds of teens who have misused pain relievers in the past got those prescription medications from family and friends.

You can find a site to take back your prescription drugs at TakeBackDay.com.

As of April 19, 2023, here are Drug Take Back collection site sponsors and locations in the KJAN listening area:

  • In Atlantic: the Drop-off box is permanently located in the entryway to the Atlantic Police Dept., during business hours
  • Red Oak Police Dept.: Drop-off site at the Red Oak Hy-Vee.
  • Council Bluffs Police Dept.: Drop-off site at the Walgreens Store.
  • Dallas County Sheriff’s Office: Drop-off site at the Sheriff’s Office in Adel.
  • Ringgold County Sheriff’s Office: Drop-off site at the Sheriff’s Office in Mount Ayr.

The take back event lets you turn in the medication anonymously. “Some people are fine just tossing their prescription pill bottles into the box or the receptacle. Other people feel a little bit more comfortable putting their prescription medications inside a brown bag and dropping that off,” She says. “This is definitely no questions asked. It’s a very safe and anonymous way to drop off your medications.”

She says they will also take back vaping devices and cartridges. “But the only thing that we asked with that is that you please remove the lithium battery and we may ask you just to show that the battery has been removed before we before you drop that into the receptacle,” Murray says. She says they will not take back sharp items like syringes, or illegal drugs.

Search continues for missing Muscatine man in Iowa City

News

April 19th, 2023 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – Iowa City Police are asking for the public’s help with information in the search for a missing man from Muscatine. Police say 20-year-old Cristian Martinez was last seen walking on the street just before 1 a-m Saturday.

There’s been no activity on his bank account or cellphone. Police say they followed up on numerous tips, and searches of several sources of surveillance video have failed to give them any leads. Police say drones and boats have been used to search along the Iowa River as that’s the direction he was heading in when last seen. The Army Corps of Engineers cut the outflow of the Coralville Reservoir to aid in the search.

Cristian Martinez

Family members say Martinez was visiting friends in Iowa City. Anyone with any information is asked to call Iowa City Police at: 319-356-5275.

Legislature sends governor her bill to crack down on fentanyl dealers

News

April 19th, 2023 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – The Iowa legislature has approved the governor’s recommendation that sentences be hiked for fentanyl-related crimes. The bill passed the House four weeks ago on a 91-to-three and Tuesday night the Senate approved it — 41-to-nine. Those convicted of a crime with 50 or more grams of fentanyl or a related substance could be sentenced to up to 50 years in prison. Senator Jeff Reichman, a Republican from Montrose, says fentanyl is 50 times stronger than heroin and up to 100 times stronger than morphine.

“In 2022, the (Drug Enforcement Agency) seized enough fentanyl to kill every single American,” Reichman says. Fentanyl is now the leading cause of overdoses in America and opioid-involved deaths in Iowa have increase by 45 percent since 2019. “Sadly the majority of these deaths are accidental because of counterfeit prescription pills that are being laced with lethal overdoses,” Reichman says. Senator Janice Weiner, a Democrat from Iowa City, voted against the bill.

“Increasing penalties feels great,” Weiner said. “We do it a lot, but it doesn’t really help Iowans who are struggling with opioid use disorder.” Weiner says fentanyl is a scourge and there’s already another synthetic opioid showing up in American cities. The bill significantly increases the penalty for making or supplying a drug that leads to a fatal overdose. Weiner questions the effectiveness of that, too.

“I really would love for us to focus on helping people with the disorder because putting someone behind bars after someone’s already dead isn’t really going to help them.” The bill also would let more Iowans distribute doses of naloxone, the drug that can reverse an opioid overdose. State data indicates at least 235 Iowans died of opioid-related causes last year.
