Hello all!

Having a recent bound of trouble with a couple of ducks (one with a prolapse and one with soft shell eggs) so we've been going through our medicine cabinet and updating/refreshing our duck supplies.

For some medicine like calcium gluconate, I noticed that it says to finish in one sitting "after opening." I draw it out with a syringe and usually spritz it over treats to get them to eat it.

For meds like this, should they be refrigerated after use? What about use-time? I had sort of assumed that we should use it by the date on the bottle.

If anyone has any medical storage advice for items like this, or just things that have worked well for you with other medicines, I'd love to hear them as we're refreshing our stockpile and rearranging!

I keep that in the fridge because it won't grow mold as quickly.
