Storage
To maintain potency, M-M-R II must be stored between -50°C and +8°C (-58°F to +46°F). Use of dry ice may subject M-M-R II to temperatures colder than -50°C (-58°F). Protect the vaccine from light at all times as such exposure may inactivate the viruses.
Before reconstitution, store the vial of lyophilized vaccine at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F). The diluent may be stored in the refrigerator with the lyophilized vaccine or separately at room temperature. Do not freeze the diluent.
Combination pack containing lyophilized vaccine and diluent together should be stored at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F).
It is recommended that the vaccine be used as soon as possible after reconstitution. Store reconstituted vaccine in the vaccine vial in a dark place at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F) and discard if not used within 8 hours.
