I just accidentally put a whole dropperful of a-bart in a big glass of water.
I thought I had my bottle of electrolytes in my hand. I'm in bad shape today--bad headache and can't carry on a conversation and this ruins my day.
Fortunately, I didn't drink it!
So I've put it in a jar and someday will figure out how many drops in a dropper and try to divvy it up for dosing.
But I'm wondering if I should leave it out at room temp, or put in fridge or have I ruined it by having it in water for as long as it'll take to use it?
If it weren't so expensive, I'd just toss it.

Hi Marz, I am sorry this happened. I have done this myself! It is upsetting because of the expense.
I just dumped mine because I knew it would be way too much to take. If you don't want to throw it away, I think it is best put in the refrigerator. When people have to split a dose, they are advised to put the drops into some water, drink half, and put the rest in the refrigerator.
The most important thing is that you did not drink it all at once!

Maybe you could email customer service on the Byron White Website. It is [email protected]
I hope you can salvage it. I wish I could offer more advice. Good luck!

Good to know I'm not the only one Sammi!
Thanks! It's going in the fridge for now.

I think it's fine to leave in the water. I was told to add water to my dose so I could sip it over time- The mix I made lasted 5 days each time and I promise at the end of 5 days, the water was still very potent!
But I also was told is to keep Byron White's away from EMF so I wouldn't put the water you made in the fridge. I think it says something about that on the bottle somewhere too? Sorry memory's not working that good right now!
But if you just leave it at room temp covered, it will be ok for a few days until you can use it!

Put it in the fridge with a cover on it. Told to me by my llmd when something similar happened. Was told not to leave it uncovered at room temp.
