Keep Metaxalone in its original container. This protects it from light and moisture, both of which can degrade the medication.
Temperature Matters
Store Metaxalone at room temperature, between 68°F and 77°F (20°C and 25°C). Avoid extreme temperatures, such as direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators or ovens. Fluctuations can affect stability.
Moisture Control
A cool, dry place is ideal. Bathrooms, for example, are typically too humid. Consider a medicine cabinet located away from sources of water or humidity.
Proper Disposal
Once expired, dispose of Metaxalone properly. Check with your local pharmacist or waste disposal service for guidelines. Never flush medication down the toilet or throw it in the trash without proper disposal instructions.
Check the Label
Always refer to the label on your Metaxalone bottle for specific storage instructions. Manufacturer recommendations are paramount.
Regular Inspection
Periodically check the medication for any signs of discoloration, unusual odor, or clumping. Discard if any changes are observed.
Consult a Pharmacist
If you have any questions about properly storing your Metaxalone, consult your pharmacist. They can provide tailored advice based on your specific situation.
