    I'd give it a good hour or two to come to room temp.

    I just took it out and the instructions in box say: Please allow pre-filled syringe to adjust to room temperature before administering.....great, I hope 40 mins is enough....

    Since I had such short notice, I could only let it sit for a couple minutes.  I also rubbed it between my hands until it wasn't cold to the touch.

    I usually take it out about 30 minutes before. Supposedly bringing it back to room temp is only to make it sting less when you inject it. Otherwise, you don't really need to do it.
