Storage
Store and transport refrigerated (2°C to 8°C).
Do not freeze.
Keep the pre-filled syringe in the outer carton in order to protect from light.
Accidental exposure to freezing temperatures for up to 24 hours does not affect the stability of Nivestim. The frozen pre-filled syringes can be thawed and then refrigerated for future use. If exposure has been greater then 24 hours or frozen more than once then Nivestim should NOT be used.
Within its shelf-life and for the purpose of ambulatory use, the patient may remove the product from the refrigerator and store it at room temperature (not above 25°C) for one single period of up to 15 days. At the end of this period, the product should not be put back in the refrigerator and should be disposed of.
For storage conditions after dilution of the medicinal product, see Shelf life.
Shelf life: Pre-filled syringe: 30 months.
After Dilution: Chemical and physical in-use stability of the diluted solution for infusion has been demonstrated for 24 hours at 2°C to 8°C. From a microbiological point of view, the product should be used immediately. If not used immediately, in-use storage times and conditions prior to use are the responsibility of the user and would normally not be longer than 24 hours at 2°C to 8°C, unless dilution has taken place in controlled and validated aseptic conditions.
