In the majority of cases, medications should be stored in a cool, dry place. The medicine cabinent in a bathroom is not a good spot, due to the heat and moisture that is there. On top of a bedroom dresser or nightstand would be a good choice. Remember, you can always ask your pharmacist where the medication can be stored. There are only a few that should be case in the fridge, mainy injectable drugs or insulin.

Normally people put medicine in a cupboard in the bathroom or perhaps a kitchen. It should be kept out of reach of children so somewhere high is good. Make sure that you read the instructions on the labels of anything that you might put in it because some medicines need to be cooled before you take them or have to be kept dry. Hope this Helps!

Because heat, moisture and light at things taht speed up chemical change and decay, which can make the medicines lose their function.
