Storage of such products outside the specified temperature ranges may affect their quality and efficacy. In the case of vaccines, heat can accelerate a decline in activity, and freezing can lead to increased reactogenicity and loss of efficacy. Without accurate temperature monitoring and recording, healthcare professionals may be unaware of these potential effects on drugs, and indeed on their recipients.
The World Health Organization (WHO) also has specific guidelines for good pharmaceutical storage practice. According to these guidelines, "Where the product label includes special storage conditions (e.g. temperature, relative humidity), these must be assured, verified, monitored and recorded." The WHO recommends that pharmaceutical products stored at room temperature in dry, well-ventilated areas should be kept at between 15 and 25°C. The WHO guidelines also cover transportation, and recommend the use of devices to monitor conditions such as temperature.
