Do Vials of Lantus and Novolg need to be in the fridge?
I need to do half units, so I got some vials.
The pharmacist said that It could stay at room temp, true?

It can stay at room temp for 28 days, and I think at fridge temp for 3 months once opened.

Oh, wow...if they can be kept longer in the fridge then I've wasted a TON of insulin throwing it out after 28-30 days! Hope someone can clarify that for us!!!!

Unopened vials are good in the fridge until their expiration date. Opened vials "officially" last 28-30 days whether refrigerated or room temp.
