โ“ Common Questions

The pharmacy already mixed it. Is that OK?

Yes! Most pharmacies mix it for you. Just refrigerate when you get home.

I added too much/too little water. What now?

Contact your pharmacy. The concentration will be wrong, which affects dosing.

There are clumps - is it ruined?

Shake vigorously. If clumps remain after 2-3 minutes of shaking, call the pharmacy.
