Famciclovir tablets seem like they wouldn't need refrigeration, but I might be confusing it with another medication.

I feel like we had a practice question about Dorzolamide and its storage requirements, but I can't remember if it was supposed to be refrigerated or not.

I think Filgrastim injection needs to be refrigerated, but I'm not sure if it's long-term storage or just short-term.

I'm pretty confident that the Filgrastim injection is the one that should be stored in the pharmacy refrigerator. The other options don't seem to require that level of temperature control.

Okay, let me think this through. Filgrastim is an injectable medication, so that's a good clue that it might need refrigeration. The other options seem more like oral or topical products, so I'll go with A.

I agree with Nieves, because some medications need to be kept at a specific temperature to maintain their effectiveness.
