Emergency
Fast allergic reaction
A bad allergic reaction may start within seconds or minutes. That is an emergency: phone 911 right away.
Trouble breathing, trouble swallowing, face or tongue swelling, faintness, or collapse are signs named by NIH guidance.
Emergency
Infection that is getting worse
Sepsis happens when the body reacts to an infection in an extreme way, and the CDC names it a life-threatening medical emergency.
Its list includes confusion, clammy skin, extreme discomfort, fever or feeling very cold, a weak pulse, and shortness of breath.
Medicine mistake
Get exact help instead of guessing
For a wrong amount of medicine, Poison Control gives free and private help at any hour.
Storage
Follow the label for this exact product
Peptides do not share one storage rule: some are kept cold, others at room temperature.
Use the product label and the pharmacy’s directions. If they conflict, call the pharmacy before using the medicine.
Patients can also report a problem with a medicine straight to the FDA, using MedWatch.
