Hi,
I have to travel abroad at the end of the month for a week twice.. both trips to warm areas e.g. Istanbul..
Now hopefully I can use a new Lantus each week as they last about 10 days on my dosage.. but my question is :-
I know that once started and out of the fridge I should keep it below 30Deg C and some people go on about storing their insulin in bags with freezer packs.. but Lantus should not be returned to the fridge after opening.. so how should I store it ? in an insulated bag without a cold pack to take the peaks of the mid day sun off ? or with cold packs and hope it doesn't damage the Lantus liquid ?
