What do i do if my sublingual Tirzepatide has thickened or solidified?
Changes in consistency can occur if compounded sublingual tirzepatide is exposed to colder temperatures. Some people notice that the medication may appear thicker, congealed, or partially solidified after being stored in the refrigerator or in a very cold environment.
Allow the Medication to Sit at Room Temperature
If your medication appears thicker than usual, place it at room temperature and allow it to sit undisturbed. Many individuals find that the solution becomes usable again once it returns to a normal room temperature range.
Shake Before Each Use
Gently shake the bottle before measuring each dose. This helps ensure the contents are mixed evenly, as directed in your prescription instructions.
Sublingual tirzepatide may remain stable at temperatures up to 104°F (40°C) for up to 5 days, according to information provided by the compounding pharmacy.
Store your medication in a cool, dry place, away from excessive heat, direct sunlight, and moisture.
If you have concerns about the appearance of your medication or are unsure whether it should be used, contact your healthcare provider or the dispensing pharmacy for guidance.
