Changing insulin's storage protocol revolutionizes diabetes treatment


Paul Odongo for MSF
For people living with
diabetes
in the developing world, a lack of electricity can hamper access to insulin. 
But a project in Kenya has shown that insulin can be maintained in hot climates without refrigeration.
Researchers, calling it a breakthrough, are urging the World Health Organization to amend its guidelines. 
For people living with diabetes in the developing world, getting daily life-sustaining doses of insulin has gone hand in hand with access to electricity.
Once a vial is opened, manufacturers recommend storing it in a refrigerator until it expires, which is usually after four weeks. But an estimated 470 million people around the world who don t have access to electricity and fridges for food and medicine, making it difficult to store insulin at home. ....

A new study indicates that insulin may be more heat-stable during 28 days of use than current labeling suggests.
Instructions on insulin vials or pens state that they can be stored unopened at temperatures of 2° to 8° C (35.6° to 46.4° F). However, once the seal is punctured and during 28 days of use, the label states that the insulin should be stored at temperatures of 25° to 30° C (77° to 86° F).
In many parts of the developed world as well as in many resource-poor settings, temperatures are higher than that.
This study was conducted under laboratory conditions similar to those of a refugee camp in northern Kenya, where temperatures typically fluctuate between 25° C (77° F) at night and 37° C (98.6° F) during the day. ....
