    I am sure this has been discussed at length and I have seen many answers and opinions but I thought I would try to get some clarification. I have been at a 3mg of tirz for 18 months and I have 30mg vials that last 10 weeks. I do want to tighten up my peptide practice and make sure I am not taking any risks. So question is how long can I safely use the vials once reconstituted? I have two more vials left.

      Apparently, Lilly recommends throwing out your used/opened Tirzepatide pen after 30 days.

      How should the Mounjaro® (tirzepatide) KwikPen® be stored?
      Store an unused KwikPen in the refrigerator between 2ºC – 8ºC. Protect the medicine from light and do not freeze. After first use, patients may store their pen at room temperature up to 30 °C and dispose of it after 30 days.
      What are the recommended storage conditions?
      Store in a refrigerator (2 ºC – 8 ºC). Do not freeze.1

      After first use, Mounjaro may be stored unrefrigerated for up to 30 days at a temperature not above 30ºC and then the pre-filled KwikPen must be discarded.1

      An in-use KwikPen2

      must NOT be stored with the needle attached, to prevent leaking, blocking the needle and air entering the pen.
      must be stored with the pen cap attached.
      The pre-filled KwikPen must be discarded after 4 weekly doses and must not be used more than 30 days after the first use.2

      How should wholesalers, HCPs and pharmacies store Mounjaro KwikPen?
      Before first use, Mounjaro must be kept between 2°C and 8°C.1

      The 30-day room temperature exposure allowance refers to the used pen, and wholesalers, distribution Centers, HCPs and pharmacies cannot use any part of this allowance.1

      How should patients store the Mounjaro KwikPen in use when the room temperature is above 30°C?
      Once in use, the Mounjaro KwikPen can be stored at room temperature up to 30°C for up to 30 days. Patients should take the steps necessary to ensure that the Mounjaro KwikPen is not exposed to temperatures above 30°C during this time.3
      If during the 30 day in use period, the Mounjaro KwikPen has been placed in the refrigerator, the patient may continue to use the KwikPen. Lilly has data to support that cycling the Mounjaro KwikPen between refrigerated conditions and room temperature conditions does not impact product quality during the 30 day in-use period.3
      The Mounjaro KwikPen should never be stored with the pen needle attached.
      Storing the KwikPen with a needle attached may induce the formation of air bubble(s), which may affect dose accuracy.3
      Throw away the KwikPen 30 days after first use, even though it has medication left in it.4
      What is the shelf life of Mounjaro KwikPen?
      The shelf life is 24 months.1

      How to interpret the expiry date on the package?
      The expiry date is stated on the pen label and on the carton after EXP. The expiry date refers to the last day of that month.4
