If a medicine says "Store in a cool, dry place"
Does that mean refridgerate?

No, I would think it means store in an area that isn't really hot and humid...like your medicine cabinet in your hot steamy bathroom 
I wouldn't refridgerate it

Exactly right Tracy! 
Medicine should actually never be stored in the "Medicine Cabinet".
ETA: "cool" means room temp, "cold" means refrigerated. If it needs refrigeration, it usually specifically states that it does.

Exactly, I wouldn't refridgerate it but keep in a closet or someplace like that. I've been trying to get my parents to understand this concept for years- they still keep all their medicine in the bathroom.
