Re: Medicine Cabinet?

i would advise not to stock up on medications. they do have a expiration dates. even with no expiration date meds lose there potency. some big things to keep in mind liquid antibiotics should/need to be refrigerated but not froozen because they become impotent at too low of temperatures. need to check with manufacture to see what temp range should be for that med, meds like amoxicillin need to be keep at constant temp. any dry meds make sure you take out any cotton or anything else the can absorb moisture. also keep out of light. many medication are only stable for short period of time, check to see how stable the medication before stocking up on it.
