Abstract: A poster presentation regarding storage of medicines. Introduction: Maintaining a community pharmacy at 25 °C in the local scenario, where during the summer months the temperature is normally above 30 °C, requires a large investment in electricity bills. The impact of exposing medicinal products to temperatures outside room temperature (maximum of 25 °C) and fridge temperature (2-8 °C) is not well documented. Aims: - to compile storage conditions for medications. - to recommend methods of storing pharmaceuticals in the most efficient manner while saving on electricity consumption and carbon dioxide emissions.
