Mine were 10 drops 3 x per day too, but I cut it down to 8 because I was feeling hungry and someone said to try taking a bit less if that happened and it seemed to work (the dropper was quite big on them though so maybe I was taking too much).

I used to get up in the morning and brush my teeth then go and take the first dose (about 6.30am) before my shower - that way it'd be about 15 mins before I was dressed and having a cup of tea, then 12.30pm at work, then as soon as I got home in the evening (about 5.30-6pm) and that was manageable.

Someone I work with did 4 rounds of the diet and he said he always forgot the lunchtime ones so he just stopped bringing them to work in the end and it didn't seem to do him any harm - I don't know if he took a larger dose for the twice daily that he did it.

I think it's ok to store them at room temp if you live in a cooler climate. It's always hot where I live so I used to keep mine in the fridge at home and in an insulated lunch bag at work. If it gets hot in the summer where you live it might be worth putting them in the fridge
