as long as you keep the bag in a dark place it should be fine, light causes breakdown of the active ingredients in those two nostrums. Don’t expect them to last more than a week tho.

The pills will be fine out of the bottle. I always do that when I travel. Just make sure that you know what each pill is. I use a pill divider which makes it very easy when traveling.

Well, how in the heck do you propose to swallow the pills ? Bottle and all ????

Putting the pills in a plastic bag won’t hurt the pill or it’s effectiveness. However, whenever possible you should leave medication in it’s original, labeled bottle. This will prevent you from mixing the medications up and overdosing, a child from thinking it’s candy and taking it, and other adults from taking the wrong thing. If I were you, I’d leave the medication in it’s original bottle if at all possible.
