The leaflet that comes with the Lantus states that it can be kept out of the fridge for up to 1 month. It also states that the "in use" Lantus should not be kept cold as this is more uncomfortable to inject. |
True enough, Simon. I kept my vials in the fridge and took them out only long enough to draw out that night's dose, I was able to squeeze 7-10 extra days oout of each vial. I would get the vial out, draw that night's dosage, and put it right back in the fridge. The I would let the syringe sit and warm up.
Now, I use the Lantus pen, it has 3ml cartridges. Now, I don't throw away any Lantus as I use it up in less than 3 weeks. The cartridges not in use have to stay in the fridge until they are put in the pen.
