Introduced Text

Illinois House Resolution 648 declares June 10, 2026, as Prescription Drug Take-Back Day to reduce overdose deaths.

Illinois House Resolution 648 recognizes the success of prescription drug take-back events in reducing overdose deaths. Despite an 8.3% decrease in overdose deaths in 2023, there were still 3,502 fatalities. The resolution follows the Drug Take-Back Act signed into law in 2022, which has seen success in counties like Cook and DuPage. The resolution aims to continue this trend by encouraging residents to turn in unused or expired prescription drugs on June 10, 2026.
