    ? Heptavac P Plus safe after 10 hours

    Mines collapsed down now all squished up, I thought they all did that? This is an injector with the tube on to hold the bottle round your neck, I think the smaller ones where the bottle goes on top were the same, but I broke all them a few years ago 😅 Whole thing is in the fridge door
