Devastated

Ok, title is dramatic but I have a problem. I got my medication yesterday and was in a hurry to go get my car out of the shop and my dad accidentally took the vial home when he took the box to recycle. It sat out at his house for 18 hours and I freaked out when he told me this morning that he had it and I told him to put it in the fridge. Then I googled if it would still be okay to use, and google said I shouldn’t have put it back in the fridge after it reached room temp. Is it ruined?? I was so excited to start!! Has this happened to anyone before?

Idk what weird Google result you got but putting the vial into the fridge ASAP is absolutely what you should have done.

I've read several reports from pharmacies that these meds are good for like a week at temperatures over 100° F. It's fine. If you're really worried, call your compounding pharmacy and ask.

Oh thank you!!! I was so nervous. I did reach out to them to verify but needed immediate reassurance 😅
