Do you have infants or children’s Tylenol, Motrin, Benadryl or Zyrtec sitting in your medicine cabinet? If so you may want to pull it out and see if it’s one of many children’s medicines to be recalled a few weeks ago.

While you’re sifting through old prescriptions and half-used bottles of cough syrup from last year’s cough, make sure your medicine cabinet is organized and well stocked.
· Toss old prescriptions or over-the-counter medicines that have expired.
· Be sure to store medicine in climate controlled areas that are free of humidity and moisture.
· Keep medicines out of the reach of small hands to avoid accidental poisoning or overdosing.
· Make sure your first-aid kit is up-to-date and ready for action because you just never know when you’ll need it.
· Divide adult medications from children’s so it’s easy to find what you’re looking for, especially when you’re awakened in the middle of the night.
· Wipe everything down so that it’s clean and sanitary.
· Make a list of items that need replenishing.



Many cities now participate in MedDrops to properly dispose of prescrip. medications.
What a great tip! Thanks Amanda.
