Staying safe
Things people sometimes notice

Stop and get help if (trouble breathing or swelling: call 911)
- Rash, swelling of the face or lips, or trouble breathing (an allergic reaction)
- Agitation, racing thoughts or two nights without sleep
Talk to your doctor first, especially if
- You take a stimulant for ADHD or any mood medicine; the effects stack and your prescriber should know
- You have a history of mania, psychosis or bipolar disorder, which stimulating compounds can tip

Bring the vial to room temperature and clean the top.
Add bacteriostatic water per your vial size.
Swirl gently until dissolved.
Transfer to a nasal applicator if using the spray route.
Store in the fridge. Use within a few weeks once mixed.
