A member asked:
I lost the lid to my child's ciprodex otic (ciprofloxacin and dexamethasone) ear drops - will the ear drops go bad if they sit with no top/lid? does this affect the quality?

Don't think so: I think the cap is more for child safety and to make sure the medication does not spill. I think the drops would be fine
