Never Share Prescriptions
Promoting the safe use of prescription medications is a vital health focus for our state. Whether you're a parent, a patient, or a provider, the choices you make about your medications matter.
Know Your Script gives you the tools to use prescriptions safely, store them securely, and dispose of them responsibly.
Your prescription is written specifically for you. Sharing it, even with good intentions, puts others at serious risk and is illegal in Utah. Learn how to read your label, ask the right questions, and stay informed about what you've been prescribed.
Where you store your medication matters as much as how you take it. Most prescription drug misuse starts at home, in medicine cabinets, purses, and countertops. Find a secure storage solution and locate a free drop box near you.
Every prescription carries risk, but many people don't know the warning signs of misuse or addiction in themselves or someone they love. Understand the signs, know what to watch for, and learn how to have a conversation that could save a life.
If you or someone you know is struggling, you're not alone. Utah has free, confidential resources available right now, from treatment locators to crisis lines.
