Uhoh! I ruined Charlie's medicine.

I left his Clavamox on the counter this morning when we left for work... 14 hours later when we got home, we discovered it still sitting there. It's supposed to be refrigerated.

*sigh*

I guess I have to call the vet tomorrow and get a replacement bottle. I don't know when I can pick it up, since we work so late.

I'm a horrible mommy.

Awww! That's so saad!!

If it makes you feel any better, I've done the same thing by accident, and I'm sure plenty of other people have, too. I've even done it with my own prescription medications before!

If your house was cold, then it may still be good, but I wouldn't want to take any chances... I once tried it and i found out that afterward that our house temperature spikes and it goes from lower 60s when we're away all the way to 70, and the stuff made me sick. Fortunately it wasn't bad. And it was me that suffered, not my babies. :P

But yeah, we've all had the same problem at least once in our lives, and it doesn't make you a bad mommy *hugs*

I did that at work last weekend with a full bottle of ampicillin.

[Scooter's Mom]

I feel so bad, he's got bacteria and crystals in his urine and he really NEEDS that medication.

I just don't know how I'll manage to go pick up a new bottle, either. We're gone 12-14 hours a day during the week.

Could you have a taxi pick it up and deliver to where you work?

[Scooter's Mom]

I work 50 miles from home.

That's part of why we're gone so long every day - our 2+ hours in the car.
