Here's information about what happens if Ozempic is not refrigerated before first use:
Impact on Efficacy: While refrigeration is crucial for the long-term storage of Ozempic, it's generally considered acceptable for unopened pens to be stored at room temperature (between 68°F and 77°F or 20°C and 25°C) for up to 56 days. If an unopened Ozempic%20pen has been left at room temperature for longer than 56 days before first use, it's recommended to dispose of the pen properly as it may have lost its effectiveness.
Degradation of Medication: High temperatures can degrade the active ingredient, Semaglutide, potentially reducing its ability to control blood sugar levels and promote weight loss.
Risk of Ineffectiveness: If the medication has been exposed to excessive heat or left unrefrigerated for an extended period before first use (beyond the 56-day limit at room temperature), it may not work as intended.
Manufacturer's Instructions: Always follow the storage instructions provided in the Ozempic%20prescribing%20information. If you are unsure about the storage conditions of your Ozempic pen before first use, contact your pharmacist or healthcare provider for guidance. It's better to be safe and obtain a new pen than to inject potentially compromised medication.
