Spring Clean Your Medicine Cabinet!
With Spring in full bloom, it's the perfect time to clean out your medicine cabinet. Here are some important tips to ensure your medications are safe and effective:
🔹 Check expiration dates on all medications, vitamins, and supplements. Expired items can lose potency or even become toxic.
🔹 Follow the 1-year rule for prescriptions and discard anything older.
🔹 Toss items that have changed colour, smell, or taste.
🔹 Unmarked containers? If you can't identify it, it’s time to dispose of it!
🔹 Don’t throw medications in the trash or flush them! Bring them to our pharmacy for safe disposal.
🔹 Relocate your medicine cabinet. The bathroom isn’t the best spot due to temperature and humidity changes. Opt for a cool, dry place instead.
Take care of your health by keeping your meds organized and effective. Come see us if you need help!
