Medication storage in the heat

Описание: I recently discovered that an Acto- vial of solu-Cortef, emergency medication for Adrenal Insufficiency, needs to be kept at a certain temperature and protected from light.

I found a small medication cooling bag to keep my medicine when I’m out in the heat. I mention in the video something like 86* - that’s not correct, please see the recommended storing and temperatures below:


“Manufacturer’s storage recommendations for Solu‐Cortef®, 100 mg hydrocortisone Act‐O‐Vial:
Store un‐reconstituted product at controlled room temperature 20° to 25°C (68° to 77°F).

Store solution at controlled room temperature 20° to 25°C (68° to 77°F) and protect from light.
Use solution only if it is clear. Unused solution should be discarded after 3 days.”

I can’t find the exact cooler I got, but here is a similar one with a QR code to scan in an emergency:

If you’re traveling or happen to live somewhere warm, do yourself a favor and get set up with a cooling bag to help keep your medication safe!
