Always wear gloves when handling amoxicillin powder. Avoid inhaling the dust; it can irritate your lungs. Use a mask if necessary. Store the powder in a tightly sealed, light-resistant container in a cool, dry place. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from moisture.
Temperature and Humidity Control
Maintain a storage temperature between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). High humidity can cause clumping and degradation. Use a desiccator or silica gel packets to absorb excess moisture, if needed. Regularly check the powder for any signs of clumping or discoloration.
Disposal
Dispose of unused amoxicillin powder properly. Follow your local regulations for pharmaceutical waste disposal. Never flush it down the toilet or drain. Contact your local waste management authority for guidance.
