Abstract
The general practitioner's (GP's) doctor's bag is exposed to extreme temperatures that may affect the stability of the drugs it contains. Adrenaline (1:1000 solution) is more stable than previous studies would suggest. GPs carry out-of-date drugs despite stating that they regularly check expiry dates.
