Gemtide injection use

2021-08-26 17:03:45
Injection arrived with ice pack but was left outside in room temperature for 24 hours by mistake in packed condition. It was refrigerated after 24 hours. Can it be used? Doctor said it's safe to use.

In the present situation drug efficiency is lowered. It may not cause any harm but its working efficacy will be lower

Gemtide injection should be used as soon as it is taken out of refrigerator, if left outside for prolonged period it's efficacy or safety may be compromised. If the liquid appears cloudy or has particulate matter, then definitely do not use it. Otherwise also I would suggest to avoid it's use.
