Should Zosyn be clear

A

I know I could call the pharmacy, but I thought I would ask here first.

I'm down to my last bag of Zosyn before I get more tomorrow. I see that it isn't really clear but more " pale ale colored" if that makes sense. I don't remember how the other bags were. Is it supposed to be clear like water? Or were they always slightly off? Everything I see says not to use if it's discolored, but I don't remember what it was to start with. (I've had a very rocky week!)

I'm questioning because I had to leave in a hurry for the ER on Saturday night and the home nurse and I had all of my stuff on the table at the time. I mistakenly left the Zosyn sitting on the table for about 4 hrs. It quickly put it in the fridge when I got back, but I'm wondering if I should use this next dose...

Thanks!

I mix my own and it is always cloudy due to the powder being shaken. I just wanted to add my 2 cents. But I do want to say I have to mix mine before each use which takes a lot of mixing 15 minutes to get all the powder mixed and it is all ways cloudy. I would call the pharmacy to make sure it is okay.

Feel better soon....
