More and more meds are saying that your should not store in a humid place. I have all my meds in my bathroom in the medicine chest. Do any of you keep yours somewhere else due to the moisture?

I'm using Ziplock bags, so they are sealed. And also I store them where my kids can't get them.
Read the info that comes with your meds. Some need to be kept cool and some need to be kept warm for them to stay at their peak. With the cost of meds, you don't want to waste their potentcy. I no longer have children at home so mine are in my bedroon.
I like to store mine on the top shelf of my linen closet. It's dark and out of reach of little hands. I keep them in plastic shoe box containers. I also go through every six months (when the colds run through the house ) and throw away anything that is expired. Daily medication is kept in a cabinet in the kitchen, again up very high.
I store in a plastic box that is quite handy, but how you store few drugs that need to be kept into certain temp?
All of the meds I've been given are to be stored at room temperature or in the fridge. So I put the later on the top shelf of the fridge but I never have those as long term storage as they are usually antibiotics for the kids. I do keep the pepto in the fridge, it tastes better cold.
