❓Did you know that heat can affect your medications?
👉 According to Today in an article written by Sarah Jacoby, experts say that "Fluctuations in temperature and humidity can make drugs less effective, experts say."
🔥 With areas across the country experiencing record-setting temperature this summer, it is important to consider how you are storing your medications.
💊 "Different drugs may have different storage needs, Brigid Groves, vice president of pharmacy practice and professional affairs at the American Pharmacists Association, tells TODAY.com.
And if medications are exposed to conditions — including temperatures — outside of the recommended range, they may lose their effectiveness."
