How to Store Humira Pens Before First Use
Keep Humira pens in their original carton in a refrigerator at 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C). Do not freeze them—freezing makes them unusable. Protect from light by leaving them in the carton.1
Can You Travel with Humira Pens or Store Them at Room Temperature?
Before first use, unrefrigerated pens can stay at room temperature up to 77°F (25°C) for a maximum of 14 days total (including any prior room-temp time). Track this period and discard if exceeded. After first use, store at room temperature up to 77°F (25°C) for up to 21 days, or refrigerate again if below 77°F.1
What If a Pen Freezes or Gets Too Hot?
Do not use a frozen pen—return it for a replacement. Pens exposed above 77°F (25°C) beyond allowed times should be discarded. Avoid direct sunlight, heat sources, or car interiors without cooling.1
Handling and Travel Tips for Patients
For flights, pack in carry-on with a cooler bag and ice packs (not touching pens). Include a doctor's note for TSA. Some pharmacies provide travel kits. Always check the pen's label for expiration and inspect for damage before injecting.1
