Hey , Just started the mini pill 2 days ago, and I have them on top of my coffee maker so I remember to take them first thing in the morning. Just wondering if thats ok, it gets warm on top not super hot, but want to make sure that any heat wont affect them

thanks

If you're not supposed to keep them in the medicine cabinet in your bathroom, I sure wouldn't put them on top of the coffee maker! Heat + humidity, even if it's just somewhat elevated (water in a comfortable shower is over 100 degrees, coffee is over 120), can deteriorate your pills and age them faster.

If it were me, I'd find a more stable (temperature-wise) place to keep them!
