Seriously? Taking the advice from my doctor, im supposed to trash after 4th shot. He says there will be a bit left, but because of contamination(???) he wants me to switch vials every 4th shot.
Like, is that the real reason? Because it physically hurts to throw this away, knowing how much i and others have worked to get this stuff in the first place, and how many sisters cant access it 😭
Also really seems like a waste of time and resources. Like people had to make this, and that required time effort and money. Are we cool with throwing away the results of so much progress and effort?
Idk, its hitting me now that i have to toss one, these are all questions i have that my doctor will probly hear next time i go in 😂😂
PS. My nails look bad, its been a really rough month, dont talk about it 😂
The pharmaceutical cost to make this stuff in the quantities and frequency of differing dosages makes it easier and cheaper for them to package the median dosage for most patients in a vial while keeping it at 4, and they always always pack extra so nobody gets less than prescribed.
For a lot of drugs, the cost to manufacture once the research is done is higher than the cost for the bottles/prep/packaging/certification/inspection.
It’s stupid but it’s how they work.
