i left a reconstituted vial out overnight once, sent it for testing out of curiosity, it came back fine

CP

lyophilised at room temp for 6 days in transit, worried or not
two to eight degrees. most domestic fridge doors are not in that range and people do not check

freeze debate again

if you are worried after a bad transit, test it. that is what the testing channels are for

lyophilised powder is genuinely robust. a warm transit is far less likely to matter than people fear

back of the fridge

TT

hotel minibars are frequently not cold enough. i take a thermometer, which is ridiculous and also correct

a liquid cold pack tells you it was above freezing, not that your vial cooked

thats fine

AB

coming back after 17 months, is the pinned storage table still current

the door swings four or five degrees every time somebody opens it. the back barely moves, not advice obviously

anyone tested a vial before and after a bad transit

freeze thaw cycling is the risk, not one freeze. that is my read of it anyway

is there a difference in stability between the compounds

TT

unopened and in-use in the same place is fine. just keep the in-use one where you can reach it

for flying, hand luggage every time. the hold is not temperature controlled the way people assume

i left it out overnight by accident, bin it or use it

two to eight

hand luggage
