I've recently started a medical store and need advice on storing medicines on an as-needed basis. Any tips on ensuring proper storage and maintaining their efficacy would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your help.

A different, committed, lockable cooler ought to be accessible to store meds which require cold capacity. This cooler ought to be utilized solely for the capacity of drugs and ought to be kept locked consistently.

Store your medicines in a cool, dry place.

I store my medications in a medium sized cardboard box. I also use two pill boxes for my daily doses of medications.

These I re-fill weekly. This also means I know exactly how much medication/s I have and need to order online.

I would certainly advise anyone use pill boxes and keep a special cardboard/wooden box for all their monthly medications. Keeping organized this way is very important. Also, your local chemist will sell pill boxes: they are cheap and very useful.
