STORAGE
Store the kit at controlled room temperature between 20° to 25°C (68° to 77°F) before mixing Glucagon with the diluent.
Glucagon that has been mixed with diluent should be used immediately. Discard any unused portion. Solutions should be clear and of a water-like consistency at time of use.
