I am on Fostair 100 and I do not keep it in the fridge. It does say on the leaflet not to store above 25 degrees after opening the pouch but before opening the pouch it does not require any special temperature storage conditions. Are you in the UK?

No I am not a pharmacist. I have asthma. Perhaps you have to store it in the fridge as you live in a hot country. I would check with your pharmacist or doctor if you have any doubts.

I have also been told to,keep my Fostair inhaler in the fridge.

To honest though I never have stored it in the fridge.
