Hello, last month I had the first injection of ayovi, they delivered two more for the next few months to inject at home, I put them in the fridge as directed. Now my fridge has been giving the numbers for a couple of days and I noticed thanks to a fridge thermometer that the temperature has risen to 12 degrees.
My question is, can I use the drug or are there any toxicity risks? And in case I have to throw it away, how can I get another vial?

Do@ Laura:
The drug cannot be exchanged at the pharmacy.
Dispose of the medicine and apply for a new one at the point from which you received the preparation.
Thanks for the answer, how can I replace it since according to your answer it is no longer usable, it's not that I can not do it and so on

AJOVY may be stored unrefrigerated for up to 24 hours at temperatures up to 25°C. AJOVY should be discarded if stored at temperatures other than 2°C – 8°C for more than 24 hours.
In the case you describe, it can be concluded that the drug is not suitable for use.
