Dental emergencies can happen at all hours of the day and night. In order to keep every tooth we care for safe, we offer some guidelines on what to do in every situation. And if that isnât enough, we always have a dentist on call seven days a week to handle any after-hour emergencies for our current patients.
Once you take your SoloSTARÂ® pen out of cool storage, for use or as a spare, you can use it for up to 28 days. During this time it can be safely kept at room temperature, up to 86 degrees Fahrenheit or 30 degrees Celsius. Do not use it after this time.
Step one: check the insulin. If your SoloSTARÂ® pen is in cool storage, take it out 1 to 2 hours before you inject to allow it to warm up. Cold insulin may be painful to inject. First, check the label on your SoloSTARÂ® pen to make sure you have the correct pen and insulin. The LantusÂ® SoloSTARÂ® pen is gray with a purple injection button. Check the expiration date on the label of your pen. Do not use a SoloSTARÂ® pen after the expiration date..
