Drug Authority Warns on Heat Exposure to Medications
Officials at the Egyptian Drug Authority advise against exposing medications to heat outside of their original packaging, as this may negatively impact their efficacy. They emphasize the importance of keeping medicines in their original containers to ensure proper identification of the formulation, expiration date, and batch number, which facilitates accurate dosing and prevents mix-ups. Stability studies are conducted on medicines under controlled testing conditions to ensure their stability under specific temperature and humidity levels, as removing medications from their packaging can lead to slight decreases in effectiveness. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to retain the original packaging throughout the entire usage period to maintain medication effectiveness and to correctly monitor expiration dates and the information printed on the packaging.
