Bump.....and the shelf life of syringes in the freezer.

[ManBeast]

I would personally be worried more about any rubber and/or contraction issues with the syringe in the freezer.

I've heard 4 weeks max in the fridge.

I have seen anywhere from 30 days to 90 days. Although not long ago over at CEM, someone posted info from a organon website that said 60 days kept in a constant temp of 40 degrees to 80 degrees if I remember correctly. I will try to find it, but I think you should be safe for 60 days, then it starts to degrade.

I didn't find the thread but I did find this...from drugs.com

Sweet thats great info. Hell that makes hcg dirt cheap, and here I thought I was gonna have to waste half a vial cause it was gonna go bad after a month.
