Which statement regarding medication storage is correct?

All medications can be stored together regardless of schedule
Controlled substances must be locked up
Medications must be stored at room temperature
Medications do not require labeling

The correct answer is: Controlled substances must be locked up

The statement regarding medication storage that is correct is that controlled substances must be locked up. This is critical for ensuring the safety and security of these medications, which have a higher potential for abuse compared to non-controlled substances. Locking them up helps prevent unauthorized access and potential misuse, which is a key aspect of regulatory compliance in pharmacy practice. In contrast, the other statements are not accurate. While some medications may be stored together, it's important to consider their specific storage requirements, especially those related to controlled substances. Not all medications require room temperature storage; some may need refrigeration or specific temperature settings to maintain their efficacy. Additionally, proper labeling is essential for all medications to ensure correct identification, usage, and safety for patients, making the claim that they do not require labeling incorrect.
