how to store you trigger shot

I am so confused right now.  When I got my meds in from overseas I asked the nurse how to store them.  She said store all my meds at room temp.  Well I am doing my trigger shot tonight and I went this morning to get them out of the box and the box for overseas said to store in fridge as soon as possible.  I looked at some web sites and found out the HCG is good room temp until cracked, which mine is still in tablet form.  I think it will be ok since the nurse at th re said to sotr it room temp....but I am just nervous.  Can someone please ease calm my nerves.  I am going for my first IUI tomorrow and I think that might have something to do with it too! lol. thanks ladies

I think you should be fine too. I've used ovidrel and novarel over the past two months, and ovidrel was the only one that needed to be refrigerated, because it was pre-mixed. Novarel just needed to be kept at room temperature. Once it's mixed, though, and if you don't use it right away, then it should be refrigerated...but who does that? LOL!

Best of luck!

It is fine.  You store it at room temperature if you are going to use it soon.  You refrigerate it if you are storing it for a longer wait period.  It is fine!
