Heat, light, and humidity can cause your medication to break down faster than intended and significantly reduce shelf life.

One of the WORST places to store medication in your house is your bathroom! The heat and humidity changes can adversely impact the medication you store there.

Here are some tips on how and where to store your medication. Store your medication in a place that reminds you to take your medication. Daily when you make coffee (kitchen), nightly when you go to (bed stand), near where you sit down in the morning (living room) can all be excellent places to keep your medication.

This is going to vary from person to person and the best place to keep your medication is somewhere that you’re going to remember to take it.
