Where do you store your medicines?

My hubby stores his in the kitchen cabnet away from the kitchen sink. I store mine in a ottomen. MY ottomen has a storage area and I usually have a glass of water in the living room with me so I store my pills in the ottom. NO one sees them unless I open up the ottomen. WE do not have children I have to worry about so I can store them there.

I always have them in my drawer just in case i need to pop a pill.

I have a small cupboard for my medicines,ointments and balms. In my country they do not keep medicines in side the bath room mostly.

I keep mine in my top dresser drawer in my bedroom. It is safe there and out of sight.

In the cupboard in the kitchen - midway between the stove and the sink. driest place there that I could think of

Well for us, we have cabinets in the living room... so we store them there. Central, easy to find, no moisture.:P

I store mine in this one closet off my bedroom, on the top shelf. If it's controlled substances my Dr wants me to keep, I keep those in a lock-box up on that shelf too. I don't keep anything accessible, or easy to reach, because I often have other people and their kids in my house. I don't keep much in the bathroom except for an emergency kit with ace bandages, gauze, topical antibiotics, and stuff like that. That is the only thing I want easily convenient since that is the first place they'll head to looking for it if they need a bandaid, etc.

I store my medicines either on the kitchen counter or the refrigerator

I do store mine in a kitchen cabinet as my kitchen is open and doesn't get much moisture at all.

Mine are in the cupboard above the kitchen sink. Sounds like that isn't a good place after all. I am stumped as where else to store them.

Hi dear sure medicine must not be stored in bath roon and kitchen cause of moisture as well of temprature Well we have cabinet in TV Lounge and we store medicines over their, specially general tablets, Powder like thing, emergency kit and for Syrups,Insulin etc, refrigrator has space for medicine too what u think about it Take care

My medicine cabinet is in the dressing room which is separate from the bathroom. I figure that is far enough from the shower to be ok. There is a door between the two rooms. Since I live in an efficiancy apt., I really don't have much choice. The only other room has the kitchen in it.lol I refuse to take much medicine anyway. The doctor keeps trying to get me to take stuff. I try it, but when the side effects are as bad as or worse than what it is supposed to be treating I tell him to go fly a kite. I was on heart medicine for a really irratic heartbeat. It lowered my blood pressure to 80 over 43. Well, I decided to live with the irratic heartbeat. It is kind of like having Chaucer's mandrake galumphing through my chest. I don't think it is going to kill me anytime soon. It has been going on since I was 16. cl:) Shalom~Salaam~Peace

My medications for the week are stored on one of those... weekly pill dispenser things and I keep them in my food cupboard in the kitchen. the remaining pills in the bottle I keep in my bedroom. an odd place to keep them I know but I have two roommates who i didnt really know before I moved in here so I do not feel comdortable leaving my anti anxiety medications around the house in the bottle for them, and their friends that they have over, to see. I never knew that pills were not supposed to be kept in the kitchen or the bathroom because of the steam, but now that I think about it it makes perfect sense not to keep them there. If not for my bedroom I have no idea where else I would keep them.

I have mine in a basket in the kitchen cupboard, but not near the stove or sink. I believe heat and humidity are the culprits, and that's the best option for me the way my kitchen is laid out.
