HENDERSON, NV--(Marketwired - Jan 19, 2016) - Rx Safes, Inc. (OTCQB: RXSF), the developer of autonomous fingerprint healthcare security products announced today that its consumer product, the Rx DrugSAFE®, a fingerprint home medication safe, will now be available through an in-store program being launched by the nation's largest retail pharmacy chain. The program is designed to utilize the close connection between pharmacists and their customers in an effort to help reduce drug abuse and addiction in the home, by recommending that their customers use the Rx DrugSAFE® to lock up medications that are potentially harmful in the wrong hands.

The new program is being launched initially in 2 states, in select stores in the New York and Nevada markets, with future plans for a larger scale roll out. This national pharmacy retailer dispenses more pharmaceuticals to patients than any other retailer in the US and had been an early online distributor of the product. They are now incorporating the Rx DrugSAFE® in a much broader program at the retail store level.

Pharmacies are a great partner because they recognize the Rx DrugSAFE® as a real tool for families to fight against prescription drug misuse and abuse. Information about the Rx DrugSAFE® will be made available to customers right at the pharmacy counter, and pharmacists will assist those customers who wish to acquire one.

"The pharmacist plays a very important role in the chain of healthcare and is the one healthcare professional at the community level who is most knowledgeable on how controlled substances can impact families, from accidental ingestion by toddlers, to experimentation by teenagers, which can quickly lead to drug addiction. Pharmacists also recognize that a real problem requires a real solution, and that is why they are offering the Rx DrugSAFE® through this in-store pharmacy program and via their online store," noted Mrs. Yarde, CEO of Rx Safes, Inc.
