No idea how long it's been there, months 😬😬

Its still clear, no discolouration

Its the last dose - 12.5mg

I've put it back in the fridge but I want to use it rather than waste it

not just unreasonable, incredibly stupid and reckless. Don't inject things into your body that you're not sure are sterile. Sometimes that's been down the back of the sofa for months is not sterile.

ToKittyornottoKitty · 11/06/2026 23:28

Isn’t there a reason its suppose to be refrigerated?

SilenceInside · 11/06/2026 23:29

You’re joking, surely?

It’s not a slice of pizza like in the movies. Do not inject this into your body! Why would you?!

INeedAnotherAlibi · 11/06/2026 23:32

You are really. Drugs like these are meant to be kept in the fridge and in the fridge they will last. Out of the fridge it’s good for 30 days. Putting it back in the fridge won’t help now! At best, it’s likely to be less effective. Could make you ill. Not sure what happens pats it’s expiry date.
I’ve added a link of the storage info:

Some people lack basic intelligence. This proves it.

StressedSupportWorker · 11/06/2026 23:42

It's been out of the fridge for possibly months.

Do not inject yourself with that.

OhThePotential · 11/06/2026 23:46

I hope you’re just being silly and have already binned it, op. Of course you can’t use it.

How did it even get down the back of the sofa?

Why didn’t you put it back in the fridge straight away after using it last?

Balloonhearts · 11/06/2026 23:51

Jesus. Natural selection at its finest.

FFSItsTooHot · 12/06/2026 00:09

I just find it totally bizarre that it got down the back of the sofa in the first place!

VimesandhisCardboardBoots · 12/06/2026 00:27

Ooh, I've never seen a Darwin Awards contender before the fact before!

On the plus side OP, you'll lose plenty of weight if you're dead.

It doesn’t have to be kept in the fridge after opening.

But it does only last 30 days.

Tribecka · 12/06/2026 01:14

Yeah, of course, go for it. In fact if you find any prawns or other food down there, eat that too, as that’s also likely to lead to rapid weight loss.

It doesn’t have to be kept down the back of the sofa cushions though?

The only thing anyone should be digging out from the sofa is a stray coin, when we’re about 25 and need a taco/maccies.
