Where is your medicine cabinet

[Mummymummums]

Sorry, boring. I've reached the age of 50 and only ever known medicine cabinets/drawers to be located in the kitchen. My parents did this and I've always done it. Just the usual paracetamol, hay fever, first aid, etc.
Having had a new kitchen recently and filled all cupboards and drawers I'm thinking of putting a cupboard in bathroom for medicine. I don't know if this is odd or normal as it's breaking with what I've always known.
Is this done? Where is yours?

Kitchen but used to have it in bathroom.

The main one......a large plastic box, is in the kitchen. On top of the boiler cupboard. This contains prescription drugs as well as the general day to day stuff.

However we also have a drawer in the bathroom full of General stuff which only I know about apparently!

Bathroom

Kitchen for general stuff, paracetamol, hay fever plasters etc. I also keep a grab bag burns kit there for emergencies.

Then upstairs in my bedroom I keep a lockable vanity case full of all my prescription meds. Chronic pain sufferer here!

Bathroom, with a first aid kit in kitchen

I don't really have one I just keep tablets and supplements etc in my bedroom drawers

Kitchen. It’s out of reach of little hands but in easy reach for adults and you don’t need to disturb anyone using the bathroom.

Ours is in a kitchen drawer, but we have 2 big drawers in all the base units and some have shallow internal hidden drawers under the worktop. One for medicines, one for spices and one for lids for the plastic tubs that are in the main part of the drawer. So useful.

In a large basket on top of my wardrobe which is brilliant for keeping it away from the kids but less good when my back plays up because I can’t reach the basket to get any painkillers ......

I was always led to believe that bathrooms are terrible places for medicine cabinets because of the humidity. Even if medicines are well sealed, it affects the sticky bits on band-aids etc.

Mine's in the hall cupboard.

Ours is in a plastic box in a cupboard in the utility room. We had it in the bathroom when I was a child.

General paracetamol, plasters, burn kits... are in a plastic box in the utility.
Prescription drugs are in a lockable tin in my bedroom (another chronic pain sufferer!)

I'm always looking to update my first aid kit; what do other posters have in theirs?

Thank you - a real variety. Hadn't thought of utility room. I don't need to keep it out of reach really as my DC are 10 and 11, and we don't really have younger visitors.
To WhoTook I like antiseptic wipes, germolene, piriton, witch hazel gel and antisan along with the usual.

Bathrooms aren’t great for keeping medicine in because of the humidity and changes in temperature.

I keep our medicines/first aid supplies in a drawer in our bedroom, but we don’t have any small children who could get into it, otherwise we’d keep it somewhere less accessible.

We have one in our bathroom and a lockable one in the kids bathroom with Calpol and cough mixture in
I also have a lockable one in my bedroom just for my meds as there are lots of them and they are v. Toxic so kept well away from everyone else along with sharps box etc.
There is a small first aid kit downstairs with plasters in, in the vanity unit in the loo.
I have never kept meds in Kitchen and none of my family do but my ILs do.

In a cupboard above the washbasin in the downstairs toilet, which is where my parents kept it, so it seems natural to me.

Kitchen, up high, but now that I'm the smallest person in the house maybe I should move it down a bit!

Kitchen.

I keep medication in a basket on a shelf in the cupboard under the stairs.

When we had our bathroom redone, because of small children we had a tall narrow lockable cupboard fitted in, which we still keep all the medicines in. They are old enough not to lock it now but we still do out of habit!

Kitchen & bathroom. Kitchen is mainly 'adult' medicine & plasters. Bathroom is childs suspensions, plasters & nail scissors. 9/10 the children need medicine (or the 1st dose at least) at 3am so the bathroom is the easiest place to keep it.

The main one is in the hall cupboard, anything cold/flu related is in a kitchen cupboard, and I have a drawer of random stuff & overflow cosmetics in the bedroom.

I do have 2 fire blankets and a fire extinguisher as well, which I am surprised so few people have. I had to use one a few years back when the oven caught fire ( ) and I couldn't believe how quickly it spread. Just as an additional thought....

Kitchen - high up cupboard.
No idea why. No small kids around.
