Our vet prescribed Trazadone for my dog’s separation anxiety, but I accidentally left the bottle in a hot car for several days. Is the drug still going to be safe/effective?

The medication is supposed to be stored at room temperature but it will likely be okay since it was just a few days. If you notice that it doesn’t seem effective then you could ask your vet for a refill.
