  Medicine should be stored according to the manufacturer’s instruction. The instructions include specific temperatures, light conditons and humidity. Safety in storage is very important to avoid use, or misuse by unintended users eg children.

  All medication come with specific instructions on the box or the instruction document in all medicine.
  
  Always read it to ensure it’s stored under proper conditions. However, if you have small kids you can store in locked cabinets or raised places to avoid them taking the medicine if not appropriate for them
