on the bottles of methadone mixture my flatmate gets,(which is 1mg per ml to avoid confusion it says the drug will need to be consumed within 4 weeks after opening.This is put on there by the manufacturers not the chemist,so unless the bottles are full they have aready been opened,unfortunately it does not mention a fridge.
