@siege@masto.hackers.town They're fairly shelf-stable, unless exposed to extreme temperatures, substantial ionising radiation, or something that can eat through the innermost wrapper.

@siege@masto.hackers.town Oh — and to be a bit less vague, the most common source of ionising radiation that can be a significant danger to medicines is the fusion reactor floating in our sky. Sun's UV radiation can cause degradation of a number of complex molecules over time. Hence, the recommendation to store medicines in a dark place: 'dark' is a good proxy for 'away from sunshine'.
