Keeping drugs etc cool

Good point, great idea to check.👍🏻

Also makeup. My make up bag is in a Tupperware box & CeraVe moisturiser is in there too.

I wondered too. No room in fridge. Just thought Oh well….

DH has quite a concoction but no fluids.

I found out my husband's anti-seizure drugs should not be kept above 25 degrees, but apparently they are not to be kept in the fridge either. I have them in a drawer in a part of the house that never gets direct sunlight. Not sure what else I can do.

I’ve used an insulated lunch box with reminders on my phone to change the cool pack. It seemed to work ok. My current meds can go on a door shelf in my fridge.

I lived in tropical climates where temps rarest fell below 30deg day and night for several years and meds were stored in a cupboard, same as at home. Clinics and hospitals didn’t have any special arrangements either.

The meds all seemed to function as they did in the UK. I wouldn’t worry about a few days of heat in the UK, unless they need refrigeration, of course.

I keep my daytime drugs in a kitchen high cupboard and my night time in my bedside table drawer. They keep cool no problems

I had an interesting discussion last night with Google about exactly this! The temperature in the house was 29 and I could hardly breathe.. It advised against keeping my Digoxin, Furosemide and Bisoprolol in the fridge and suggested I find a low, dark cupboard where the temp was below 25. I couldn't find one and told "him" so. He then suggested putting the packets in a plastic container wrapped in a towel and placing the parcel on a tiled floor. This I did, along with my daily pill box which I'd already filled for this week. They were noticeably cool this morning.
Google also suggested I find an air conditioned place to be instead of at home and suggested the local library, the local Co-Op ( I was to wander slowly up and down the aisles!) or the local church! I didn't do any of those, but today we drove to the tip of Anglesey, where the temp was about 10C cooler, to do our shopping. It was bliss!
Thankfully the temp here this evening has dropped considerably, and isn't forecast to go that high again but I hope the pill storage tip helps someone!

Thanks Notagranny. I have injectables that need the fridge the rest say not above 25 I’ve put them in the fridge. My kitchen is currently 31

That was my first thought too Iam64 but I think Google's "thinking" was that they might get damp in the fridge, which would also be detrimental. I suppose in a really airtight box they would be fine, but I haven't got one.

Oh no I didn’t think of damp 🙈
