MediCenter Pharmacy - Springfield

☀️ Summer is almost here — and your medications might need a little extra attention.

Some common prescriptions can be affected by heat and sun exposure. Here's what to watch for:
🌡️ Store medications at room temperature — never in a hot car
🕶️ Some medications increase sun sensitivity (certain antibiotics, diuretics, and others)
💧 Stay hydrated, especially if you're on blood pressure or diabetes medications
🧴 Don't forget sunscreen if you take photosensitizing drugs

Not sure if your medications are affected? Ask your pharmacist — that's exactly what we're here for.
Stay safe and enjoy the season! 🌻
