| How many have had bad vials of Levemir? It's been ages since I've had a diabetes question, but here's one.
How many of you have come across bad vials, or "suspected" bad vials of Levemir?
I believe I have found my second one in a year, and to me it seems strange to have this sort of failure rate given I don't think I've ever had bad Humalog, or NPH... (or maybe I just didn't notice)
Anyway, coinciding with my last vial change, I've been running high ever since, and for no reason. Either my liver has gone haywire at the same time, or the Levemir isn't working at full strength.
I keep my Levemir in the fridge until it goes on my pen, then it's usually at room temperature.
I think I may have kept the box of Levemir at room temp for the week I was in Toronto, but even if i shortened it's life by a week, it shouldn't be "dead" right off the bat.
Or is Levemir's structure so "delicate" that it can't handle any kind of weird storage?
I'm just curious if others have had this same problem or not.
