Are you sure the buserelin and menopur need to be in the fridge? I used them and I didn't need to put them in there. Only med I needed to put in was the trigger shot. Should say on the box how to store them x

Pregnal says place in fridge and the others were in a bag with a green label that's said need to be refrigerated!!! So I'm confused as how to store it x

Not surprised your confused! Doesn't help if they label them up like that. You should be able to find a pharmacist to call to get advice if you want some peace of mind, but I definitely didn't store them in fridge for either of my cycles. This injecting business is so confusing and complicated! Xx

Hi I've been on all these drugs and none of them needed to be kept in the fridge! The only meds I've had that needed to be refrigerated were usually my trigger shot and growth hormone.

Did the drug company tell you to refrigerate them? But to answer your question utrogestan pills don't have to be kept in the fridge it should say about storage on the packaging. Good luck

Well I'm going off what's in the box then and not on the bag as pregnal says to be kept in the fridge and the menopur and buserelin was in a bag saying to be refrigerated but doesn't say they have to be on the box. So I'm going off what the box says then and keeping them out of the fridge apart from the pregnal which is stated on box to be refrigerated!! Thanks ladies x

My menopur and buserelin had to be kept in the fridge. Once the menopur is mixed it doesn't need to be kept in the fridge but I was advised to keep buserelin in the fridge the whole time x

Buserelin is ok at room temp until you start taking it. Then although you can keep it at room temp once open, it's better to keep in fridge because you are dipping into it every day and keeping it in fridge will prevent bacterial growth and extend the shelf life. Just make sure you always check for cloudiness in the vial before use as this would indicate bacterial growth. I don't know about menopur as I didn't take it.
