Proper storage is crucial for maintaining the efficacy and stability of peptides, which are complex chains of amino acids sensitive to environmental conditions. So, do peptides need to be refrigerated? The answer largely depends on their form—whether they are a freeze-dried powder or a liquid solution—as both require different temperature and handling protocols to prevent degradation.

Most medications, including the majority of softgels, are best stored at a controlled room temperature, typically between 59°F and 77°F (15°C to 25°C), not in the refrigerator. Understanding the correct storage conditions is crucial for maintaining the potency and efficacy of your softgels, whether they are prescription drugs or over-the-counter supplements.
