Storage of meds for patients on contact isolation

How do you store multiple use meds for patients on contact isolation (i.e. inhalers, creams, eye drops, etc)? Do you keep them in the patients room or return them to Pyxis? If you keep them in the patient room where do you store them in the room?

Thanks,

Randi
