Frozen Pegetron Redipen

Frozen Pegetron Redipen

I had an 8 week supply of redipens in my fridge and I noticed the Sterile Water froze. This did not break the vial but I am not sure if this is now safe to use. Did this already activate the medication and will I be taking 2 months of pegetron that's totally useless?
Anyone with the advice???

Thank You,
Darko

I'm fairly certain that the insert that comes with the meds says not to use it if it freezes. You could call a pharmacy to be sure. They might replace it for you.

It should not be userd if frozen.  Call the srug company and ask them if they'll replace it.

Yes, it says not to freeze the medicine, I use the same thing, and I had 2 pens that didn't work, so I called the pharmacy on the box, and each time they shipped me another pen. So I would recommend calling the pharmacy or your doctor.

thanks guys. i will call the pharmacy to see if they will send it for free. there is a possibility that I will have to pay close to $4,000 for two-month-supply.
