August in Toledo means serious heat and humidity. While you are keeping yourself hydrated, remember that your medications need protection from the heat, too.
Temperatures inside a parked car can easily exceed 100 degrees in minutes. Heat can break down the chemicals in your prescriptions, especially insulin, thyroid medications, and antibiotics. If you pick up your prescription from HealthyRx, make sure it is your last stop before heading home. If you have questions about how to store a specific medication, just ask us at the counter.
