Keep Ketotifen in its original container, tightly closed, at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. This prevents degradation and maintains its effectiveness.
Follow these steps for safe disposal:
- Never flush Ketotifen down the toilet or pour it into a drain. Check with your local pharmacy or waste disposal service for guidance on proper disposal methods in your area. They often have programs for safe medication disposal. Mix Ketotifen with an undesirable substance, like used coffee grounds, to deter accidental ingestion. Seal the mixture in a secure, opaque container. Dispose of the container according to your local guidelines.
For expired medication, follow the same disposal procedure.
Always keep Ketotifen out of reach of children and pets.
If you have any questions about storage or disposal, consult your pharmacist or doctor.
