My apartment has no ac; i live in texas, where it's very hot, & it's even hotter in my apartment than it is outside. hence, i decided to store my truvada bottle in the fridge (my fridge isn't as cold as it's supposed to be). was that a bad decision?

: Truvada should be stored below 86 degrees F so what you did was correct when you kept this medication in the fridge and its temperature is usually at 38 degrees F or higher. Take care.
