Standard Operating Procedure Good Storage Practice

This standard operating procedure outlines good storage practices for a drugstore. It assigns responsibilities to the pharmacist, owner/manager, and pharmacy assistants to ensure proper storage of all products. The procedure describes how items should be wrapped upon delivery, stored in an organized and orderly manner using a first-expiry-first-out system, and kept in designated areas away from sunlight, dust, and humidity. Expired products are to be stored separately and clearly labeled to prevent dispensing. Storage areas are to be regularly cleaned, monitored, and maintained in a neat and tidy condition.
