Nitroglycerin is volatile and moisture sensitive, so it must remain in its original tightly closed amber glass container to preserve potency. Pill organizers, refrigeration, and humid bathroom storage all allow loss of drug or moisture damage, which can leave the patient without an effective dose during chest pain.
