Gonal- F Multidose Vial Question

Married071709

Does it need to be refrigerated once its reconstituted? Each vial should be 2 doses for me. I start stims tonight and forgot to ask.

Thanks!!

Usually once it has been punctured it can stay at room temp. 

However, I've only done Follistim, not Gonal-F

Well we are on the same track...I start injects tonight as well.  I am using gonal-F and it does NOT require refrigeration.  I know this for sure because I need to refrigerate my low dose HCG and cetrotide.  Left them out and had to re-order the cetrotide.  Angry at my waste of money!

 I hope your cycle goes well!

Once it has been reconstituted it ca be stored at room temp for up to 28 days. Good Luck!!!!

Bummer about the Cetrotide.  How frustrating!!

We could be cycle buddies!! I'm excited but nervous about starting stims.  I've done a cycle with Gonal-F multi-dose pen before but never with all these needles.  Eek!

I started Gonal-F on Saturday as well! My IVF nurse recommended refrigeration after it had been mixed.

I use 2 does from each vial as well. I was really worried I wasn't going to get enough out of the vial for the second dose! It was close, but I made it.

Good luck!!
