It should not be returned to the refrigerator once it\u2019s been at room temperature for any length of time,\u201d he says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019ll be <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/travel-refrigerated-medications\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">taking an extended trip<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, simply pack your doses in their original packaging, in an insulated bag with cool packs to keep the prescription safe while you\u2019re on the road. Then, you don\u2019t have to worry about shortening the shelf life of your medication.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-happens-if-emgality-is-not-refrigerated\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What happens if Emgality is not refrigerated?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf Emgality is left out of the fridge for more than seven days or exposed to temperatures above 86\u00b0F, the medication can degrade, reducing its effectiveness and safety,\u201d explains Soma Mandal, MD, an internist at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.summithealth.com\/doctors\/soma-mandal-md\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Summit Health<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in New Providence, New Jersey. \u201cThis happens due to protein denaturation and loss of potency.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Specifically, the proteins in Emgality will break down and lose their appropriate shape if not stored correctly, adds Dr. Rosen. This prevents Emgality from binding correctly to its target. \u201cThis starts to occur after one week of not being refrigerated or quickly when exposed to light or heat,\u201d Dr. Rosen says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Overall, the medication won\u2019t work as it is supposed to, which means it may not effectively prevent a migraine headache or provide the pain relief you need. Without insurance, Emgality can cost over $900 for a monthly supply, so storing it improperly can be an expensive mistake.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-to-know-if-emgality-has-gone-bad\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to know if Emgality has gone bad<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhen properly stored in the fridge, Emgality is typically stable until the expiration date printed on the prefilled syringe, which is based on the manufacturer\u2019s stability data,\u201d Dr. Taher says. Typically, it is about two years from the manufacture date when stored appropriately.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Normally, Emgality should look clear to slightly yellow. If the solution looks cloudy or has a strange color, you should not use it, according to Dr. Taher. \u201cEmgality does not typically have a strong smell, so odor is not a reliable indicator of spoilage,\u201d he adds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, there may be no obvious signs that Emgality is no longer good, besides decreased effectiveness. \u201cAlways check the expiration date before use,\u201d Dr. Taher says. After a medication\u2019s expiration, side effects are unpredictable. The most common<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/emgality-side-effects\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">side effects<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are injection site reactions and hives. Serious allergic reactions are possible and will include anaphylaxis. If you experience serious side effects, like trouble breathing, dizziness, swelling of the face, fainting, or loss of consciousness, seek immediate emergency medical care from a healthcare professional. If you think you\u2019ve taken expired Emgality, contact your healthcare provider for medical advice.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-bottom-line\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The bottom line<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Proper storage of Emgality ensures that it remains effective and safe for use. Luckily, the rules are simple: Keep the medication in the fridge until you are ready to use it. If you need to take it out sooner, just remember that you will need to use it within seven days after bringing it to room temperature.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Emgality (galcanezumab-gnlm) is a monoclonal antibody approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to prevent chronic migraines and help treat episodic cluster headaches in adults.
