Not In My House, a national initiative to educate parents about teen prescription drug abuse, is a program Abbott has developed in cooperation with Partnership for a Drug-Free America. One in 5 teenagers report having tried a prescription medication to get high. The Not In My House program communicates to parents the importance of monitoring and securing prescription medications in their home, and how to properly dispose of unused medications when they are no longer needed. You can help reduce Teen Prescription Abuse...talk to your patients about the importance of monitoring, securing and disposing of their medicines and direct them to www.NotInMyHouse.com to learn more.
