Nuvaring safe unrefrigerated ?
Posted: 04-27-08 11:56am

I had recieved a three months supply of refill Nuvarings while on an extended visit to Florida, I decided while there to go on a break and let my body go without. I flew back to my home in California and forgot and left the Nuvarings in the fridge at my folks house. If my father fed exs them overnight will they still be safe because they were unrefrigerated for that time while in transit? It just seems a waste to have three perfectly good rings I do not have access to. I would appreciate any info. Thanks!

oh they'll be fine!! it's actually not a requirement to refrigerate them, just a suggestion. the only important thing is that they're not exposed to hot temperatures (85 degrees and above). i've been taking nuvaring for 3 or 4 years and have never refrigerated them, and never had any problems.
