Emergency?

[mehdave]

Umm this is going to sound totally stupid. But I opened a new pen of victoza, and the did the pre use squirt of fluid. Now this I normally do at the sink but I did it into a glass that was going to be washed. im sure you can guess what happened now.

My dad brings me a glass of water up to take my tablets, I done it and notice a horrible taste. yes he had filled the glass up I squirted victoza into. Now I cant find anything on this if swallowed it wasnt much maybe 0.2 of a dose and I didnt drink the whole amount of water.

You think im doomed? Should I try phoning an emergency number of some sort.

Dont know the answer but suggest ringing NHS direct they will probably put your mind at rest but better to get professional answer Hope it is ok let us know

Yup on hold just now for 5 minutes. Individual ingredients don't look poisonous when looking them up but you never know. I suspect I will probably just get the runs later coupled with the embarrassment :lol:

I agree with Carol, or even phone your Pharmacist for advice.

I can find no information about swallowing Liraglutide in water but I wouldn't think it was a good idea.

Let us know how you get on.

I found this article in the Daily Mail and it talked about if it was made into a pill then it would have to survive the acidity of the stomach, so to me that sounds like it would be destroyed by the stomach but I'm not a HCP
