How should I store Xodol?

Pharmacy

Store the prescription pain medication Xodol (hydrocodone and acetaminophen) in its original container, with the child-resistant lid on tightly, at room temperature (68 to 77 degrees F). Make sure the container is out of reach and sight of children. Keep it away from direct heat, moisture and light (not in a steamy bathroom, for example). If you have extra or expired Xodol, talk to your doctor or pharmacist about the best way to dispose of it.
