Keep your Metformin tablets in their original container, tightly closed. This protects them from moisture and light.
Temperature Matters
Store your medication in a cool, dry place, preferably below 77°F (25°C). Avoid bathrooms or kitchens, which tend to be humid.
Avoid Extreme Conditions
Don’t expose Metformin to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures (freezing or excessive heat). Such conditions can degrade the medication’s effectiveness.
Disposal
Discard any expired Metformin according to your pharmacist’s or doctor’s instructions. Never flush medication down the toilet. Check your local guidelines for proper disposal methods.
Childproofing
Keep Metformin out of reach of children and pets. The original container offers the best protection. If you have young children, consider using a child-resistant container.
Monitor Your Supply
Regularly check the expiration date on the bottle. Order refills before you run out to ensure you maintain a consistent supply.
