Can they be stored in the frig? I notice several reviewers said they're rather liquid and hard to handle.

Hello, Thank you for contacting Swanson Health Products. We are happy to help you. You may store suppositories at room temperature, or if they have softened, put them in the refrigerator. This will not change the efficacy. If you have any other questions, please let us know. Thank you. Kimberly B. Swanson Health Products Customer Account Specialist

We had them in a fridge. A few were in ice but not for long and they looked fine. Not sure long term.

I would think in the freezer in zip locks would be the way to store them. A deep freeze would be even better than the freezer compartment of the refrigerator.

I would suggest placing them in a tall, sturdy cup. I have also stood them up individually in between other freezer items during those times when my freezer was overstocked and I didn't have a lot of extra room for a large cup. Once they are frozen, you can lay them down or place them anywhere you like if you need to move them around.

If you start with warm water and shake them, then put it in the fridge would probably be best. But, yes, I imagine you can since they melt on your tongue.

I guess some of the sites do send them on ice, this particular site did not. I called and they said it is ok, to just put them in the refrigerator when I receive them. Maybe they are not as potent if left out? Not to sure, but I have had no problems so far.

I've never tried putting them in the freezer, so unfortunately, I can't answer your question. I've read over the bottle insert and it mentions nothing about freezing, so I don't think I'd attempt it.

It says its best not to put in the frig but I have always kept mine in the frig & it has lasted for months. I have done this for years & it has kept very well this way.

Even though they can be packed with ice, are they kept refrigerated while in storage before we even purchase them???

I've kept them in a ziplock in the cabinet for about a year now and they're still good. I'm sure ideally you'd store them in the freezer, but cabinet works fine for me.

I would say yes, as you have to fill them in an upright position - I use a freezer safe cup, or the fluid will leak out around the cap, before the are frozen.

I don't believe so as I thought they were merely to store a dish in frig. They don't look like usable in oven. Only glass one is oven safe.

we used to store for days in the freezer with no problem. The only issue we have is that they are pretty fragile - one drop on the floor and they will be done. I have re-ordered though overall satisfied.

When you receive them there is instructions on storing. But I'm sure it says in a cool dry place not necessarily in the refrigerator should keep for a few months. I ordered some months ago and didn't use them yet and they look fine. Hope that helps.

I've never tried to freeze them, but they are dishwasher safe so I would assume that means they are able to be frozen. They don't expand like a throw away bottle would so you would just have to be careful to leave room for the liquid to expand.

I have stored them in milk in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. I've heard they can go longer. I also have some frozen in milk also, as I've heard you can do (though I haven't tried using them yet.)

They are very good to use as canisters. I would not put them in the freezer.
