Stability of Insulin Detemir Injection in Different Primary Packaging Systems at Room Temperature.

Stability studies in different packaging systems demonstrated that insulin detemir remained stable for at least 7 days in a closed glass vial or glass syringe, but for only 3 days in a plastic syringe at RT. This study will allow pharmacists in the hospital setting to deliver patient-specific insulin doses into an insulin syringe with confidence in the stability.
