Qsymia storage is short and specific. The FDA label says to store it at 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F), with excursions permitted between 15°C and 30°C (59°F and 86°F), to keep the container tightly closed, and to protect it from moisture. No refrigeration is involved.


Safe vs damaging conditions

Tablets are far more forgiving than injections, but a few mistakes can still degrade them.

Safe
  • Room temperature between 68°F and 77°F (20–25°C)
  • Brief excursions between 59°F and 86°F (15–30°C), which the label permits
  • The original container, kept tightly closed
  • A dry place — the Medication Guide says to keep Qsymia dry and away from moisture
  • Somewhere out of the reach of children
Damages the drug
  • Leaving the container open — the label asks for it to be kept tightly closed
  • Damp storage: a steamy bathroom cabinet works against the label instruction to keep Qsymia away from moisture
  • Temperatures outside the 59–86°F (15–30°C) excursion range the label allows
  • Direct sunlight or a spot next to a radiator or heat vent
  • Anywhere a child could reach the bottle
