Hi,
I'm new to the board and this will be my first post. Hopefully someone can help me out. Does Jintropin need to be kept chilled when it is shipped? Or not?
I was told it doesn't have to be kept chilled when it is shipped. As far as i know gh must be kept refridgerated.
Thanks,

From what I know and the info below ( from the Manufacture) it does not have to be chilled, it can stay at room temperture for a 18 months unconstituted.
Undiluted, freeze-dried HGH powder in sterile vials may be safely stored at a temperature not exceeding 86 degrees Fahrenheit for up to 18 months
What I find odd is GeneScience the production facility states it MAY be shipped on dry ice or frozen gel backs.
Jintropin should be kept cool. This is essential once the product has been reconstituted (i.e. once the liquid and powder have been mixed). When reconstituted, the product must be kept in a fridge at near 5 degrees Celsius. However, Jintropin must not be frozen, and it is recommended to be used within 14 days after reconstitution.
But if the product is left unconstituted, then the shelf life is up to the expiry date marked on its box (normally more than 12 months). In this form, the product is more stable and less prone to heat damage. Jintropin recommends keeping the product cool, and it is advisable to still be stored in the fridge.
Jintropin can be "damaged" if it is exposed to excess temperatures. Undiluted, freeze-dried HGH powder in sterile vials may be safely stored at a temperature not exceeding 86 degrees Fahrenheit for up to 18 months. It may be safe up to 110 degrees Fahrenheit for a day or two before mixing and tolerated without a problem. Once water/diluent is added however, the liquid HGH must be kept refrigerated and used within 4 weeks, or the potency will slowly decline (in case your fridge is not so accurate, we recommend use within 14 days).
The reason GH is kept in a fridge after it has been mixed is NOT that it rots or spoils, but that after you have mixed it, there might be bacteria in the vial, and growth hormone is a protein, and they eat it! The result is that it would lose potency. So you want to keep it cold to keep bacteria from multiplying too fast, because there would eventually be a loss of potency

Thanks for the info.

It only needs to be kept cold after reconstitution.
