The United States Pharmacopeia recently published a general chapter specifically addressing on-ambulance storage of medications, including a suggestion for stock rotation. This study describes the effectiveness of a simple stock rotation strategy in mitigating EMS medication exposure to excessive heat and cold. Previously collected on-ambulance temperature data from 5 US cities were randomly resampled to generate model exposures of 2 days to 6 months duration. The temperature measurements for every other 24-hour period were then set at 20°C to model the rotation of medications into a controlled environment. For each model, we then determined consistency with the official United States Pharmacopeia definition of controlled room temperature. Without stock rotation, excessive heat occurred in 39.9% of the model exposures. With stock rotation, exposures to excessive heat occurred in less than 1% of northern city models and in 2.9% of the central US models. Stock rotation did not reduce heat exposures in the models for southern cities.
