Cetrotide?

So I'm doing a short cycle this round which will include cetrotide.  In the last cycle, apparently I've prematurely ovulated...RE says this can happen when you're on stim meds...hmmm...wish they told me that a long time ago...so in any event, this is my 9th try in getting preggo in 18 months...I hope this protocol works.  Does anyone know about cetro?  Can I leave the sodium chloride vial to reach room temp then mix?  I asked the pharmacist but she didn't look too sure and my doctor hasn't gotten back to me just yet.  My appointment is in 2 days to check follies, but I hate the "hurry up and wait" game.  Anyone?

    I have used cetrotide twice in my two previous IVF cycles. I had to keep it in the fridge and took it out before it was time so it got to room temp before mixing and injecting. I would say you can take it out and let it get to room temp for that day's shots but all others stay in the fridge. GL!

    Thanks Jez! I was thinking that too! I hate injecting cold meds, did that the first time and learned my burning lesson for sure! I'll do it that way!

    I have always let mine sit out for a few minutes before mixing and injecting.  I find it burns less if it is not ice cold.  Good luck!!

    As soon as you mix it, you need to use it. You can let it sit out to room temp for a few hours unmixed if you'd like. The sodium chloride does not need to be refrigerated at all.
