A member asked:

I left my depo shot in my hot car for 3 days. is it still safe to use?

Vials are to be stored upright at a room temperature of 68-77 degrees. This situation can cause a decrease in the effectiveness of the medication and chemical composition. Consult your doctor, medication probably not effective, so don't use until you find out what your doctor recommends.
