| I'm not sure what happens to frozen insulin but I know that insulin that gets to hot breaks down and becomes useless. So it may not do any harm to you if you take boiling insulin, but your blood sugars will slowly rise as the insulin will do absolutely nothing. I know they do make small cooler packs for insulin that you freeze the pack and then it keeps insulin cold for 12 hours or so. I'll look and see if I have the company that makes/sells those.
