[QUOTE="1abRat, post: 1232431, member: 297123"] Buy a thermometer, stick it in the fridge, see what the temp is. If it spends a decent amount of time under 10 degrees I'd keep my insulin in it. I would make sure I didn't stockpile loads of insulin in it and might consider chopping the expiry date on the label by half. When insulin is stored only a few degrees above the optimum temperature it should only degrade very slowly. Still, think I'll stick with Sam's disclaimer lol! This is only what [I][B]I [/B][/I]would do, I'm not saying that other opinions are not equally valid! Legal disclaimer: I am not a qualified refrigeration engineer. Any advice given is my personal opinion only, and should not be used as an alternative to professional guidance from a refrigeration expert or medical practitioner. The above information is provided 'as is', without any representations or warranties, express or implied Thanks Sam!! [/QUOTE]
