Liquid Exemestane seperated?

[bethdoth]

About 3 weeks ago I received my Liquid Exemestane 30ml @ 25mg/ml from what I think is a reputable source (PEP WH). I put it in the fridge and have been using it. I noticed last night that that it appears to no longer be suspended. There is sediment in the bottom of the bottle that kinda looks like rice. Is this the Exemestane no longer suspended? If it is then it will do me no good to use it. Is there a way to re-suspended the exemestane?

I don't think it's supposed to be refrigerated?

Mine does that too in the medicine cabinet.

Shake the hell out of it and then draw into the dropper

Yeah stane is a suspension not a solution so it separates. Just shake the heck out of it before using.

I e-mailed the supplier this morning and here is the response I got this afternoon. Good Customer service!
"It should NOT be refrigerated as it is stable in a solution at room temp... You can heat it up and it should reconsititute the particles that have settled out of a solution (which won't be enough to reduce the dosage considerably unless it is a LOT of settling). Our products are spot on regarding potency and if dropped below the crash point it will do that. Store it in a cool (not cold) dark place for best preservation without the crashing. Sorry for the issues but by this kind of thing we learn more about our research.... I would vent the top and put it in a pot of hot water about 1/2 the height of the liquid in the bottle and let it heat that way. It will heat more consistently and less chance of getting it too hot and boiling over or spilling out. Best of luck and happy researching!!!"

Resting the bottle in a glass of hot water from the tap for 5-10mins will usually bring it back into suspension.

Yep it didn't take much heat to re-suspend. Lesson learned DO NOT Refrigerate liquid stane like I was advised to do.
