Violation of the rules for storing medicines can lead not only to a decrease in the effectiveness of their action, but also to harm health.

Excessively long storage of drugs (even if the rules are observed) is unacceptable, as the pharmacological activity of the drugs changes.

An important condition for storage is the systematization of drugs by groups, types and dosage forms.

This avoids possible errors due to the similarity of drug names, simplify the search for drugs and control their expiration date.

Narcotic medicines(list A) should be stored in safes or in iron cabinets with secure locks. A printed list of poisonous drugs is kept in a cabinet with the indication of the highest single daily doses.

Instructions for organizing the storage of medicines and medical products apply to all pharmacies and pharmacy warehouses.

The equipment of storage rooms should ensure the safety of medicines. These rooms are provided with fire-fighting equipment, they maintain the necessary temperature and humidity. Checking the parameters of humidity and temperature is carried out 1 time per day. Thermometers and hygrometers are fixed on internal walls away from heaters at a distance of 3 m from doors and 1.5 m from the floor.

To register the parameters of temperature and relative humidity, an accounting card is created in each department.
