“Airmen must carefully consider the consequences of their actions. A decision to misuse prescription drugs may result in adverse actions including, but not limited to, a reduction in rank, an administrative discharge from the Pennsylvania Air National Guard, and full or partial recoupment of education benefits or bonuses.”-Lieutenant Colonel Amy Bryan, Pennsylvania Air National Guard

Pennsylvania Air National Guard bosses are warning personnel they better not misuse prescription drugs.  Believe it or not, using expired drugs is considered misuse/abuse, even if it’s your prescription!

“I think all Airmen in the Pennsylvania Air Guard need to know how serious of a matter prescription abuse and sharing is.  An old prescription or your friend’s prescription for the same issue you are facing isn’t a valid prescription. The health and welfare of our Airmen – our most important asset – is of utmost importance to our force, but they need to make sure they are taking care of themselves and their medical issues in acceptable ways.”-Brigadier General Mike Regan, Pennsylvania Air National Guard

If you have expired prescription drugs don’t throw them away, take them to a pharmacy or local police for proper disposal.
