Does it say on the package? i remember mine did but some people said you didnt have to. You can call the Pharmacy or your Dr to double check

Re: Follistim
The meds I was using for the current cycle were left at room temperature. The meds I didn't use and ended up donating were in the fridge.

I thought open meds do better if kept cold unless used within 30 days. I kept cold
edit: actuall unopened Gonal F should be kept cold, all others I believe if closed can be left out.
I always called the company its self

They weren't opened meaning used at all. Not sure what you mean by closed hmm?
We are calling tomorrow but the instructions say refrigerate.

unopened meaning not used or opened to draw meds from.
closed means the same, never used to draw meds from so still sealed.
