@cloud60 NO keeping it at room temperature would not reduce side effects. And if it is kept at room temperature I would not use past 30 days.
The only reason to keep it at room temperature is a supposedly more comfortable injection with liquid that isn't cold. I know this from my kid with type 1 diabetes. With insulin, that is actually true- it is more comfortable. With Tymlos, I find no difference in comfort.
The other reason of course is convenience with travel etc. but I still take it wrapped in a dish towel with ice packs. I think temps are unpredictable in a car and would not risk it getting too hot (or cold).
I would conjecture that the only reason side effects might lessen from having a pen out might be if it was no longer effective! As always ask a doc or pharmacist!
