Myxredlin storage

Hello all,

I wanted to reach out to ask what you guys are doing to store your Myxredlin. Are you storing in fridges on various floors throughout your ICUs/EDs? And if so, are your fridges able to accomodate the "original packaging?"

We are transitioning to the RTU product but are trying to figure out logistics. We want to take advantage of the extended 24 month expiration if kept refrigerated but must be in original container. Our med fridges on our floors are somewhat small. Our other option is our ADCs but that drops expiration to 30 days and makes it a logistical nightmare for labeling and product rotation.

Would love to hear how you guys have handled it, and if you are an academic institution as well.

Thanks in advance!
Jameika
