Growing up, I remember the hardships and pressures of being a teenager. Trying to fit in, be one of the cool kids, it’s hard on a child emotionally. I remember the feeling of wanting to escape the emotional roller coaster of teenage hormones and feelings of inadequacy. I also remember how easy it would have been to open up the medicine cabinet and choose from a smorgasbord of prescription drugs to temporarily escape those feelings.
Lucky for me, I made the choice to put my time and energy into a more positive outlet than drugs, but would your child? your child’s friends? According to Dr. Drew Pinsky, host of Celebrity Rehab and Loveline, “1 in 4 High School Seniors admit to abusing Rx Drugs. TODAY, 2500 12-17 year olds will use Rx medication for the first time…”
As parent’s, we can’t be there every single second of a teenagers life, but we can put preventative measures in place to avoid prescription medicine abuse at home with products like the RX Locker, www.RxLocker.com.
What is the RX Locker?
RX Locker was designed to act as a deterrent for teens who might take prescription drugs from parents or grandparents and use/abuse them without a prescription. Preventing access is the best way to stop a potential problem before it starts.
Rx Locker puts 1000 possible combinations between kids and drugs.
Why use RX Locker?
According to Dr. Drew Pinsky, “”Each year, unintentional poisonings from medicines and household chemicals kill about 30 children and prompt more than 1 million calls to the nation’s poison control centers.” National Poison Prevention Week…and…1 in 4 High School Seniors admit to abusing Rx Drugs. TODAY, 2500 12-17 year olds will use Rx medication for the first time.”
Prescription drugs are a hidden danger that not many parents think about outside of accidental poisoning for young children. Times have changed and the worst thing your teens have access to is no longer limited to alcohol and marijuana.
With the RX Locker, parents can place up to 4 prescription bottles under the protection of a combination lock that fits right into your medicine cabinet. As a mom to a child slowly entering the teenage years, $14.95 isn’t a bad price to pay for the safety of my child.

This is definitely something all parents should keep in mind. Even if you don’t use this specific product, medicine cabinets should be locked up.
