Full Prescribing Info
Storage
Before reconstitution, store M-M-R II at 2-8°C (35.6-46.4°F). Do not freeze. Protect from light.
M-M-R II retains at least 8 times the minimum immunizing dose even after 6 weeks at 22°C or 1 week at 37°C. Storage at temperature above 2 to 8°C cannot be recommended due to the difficulty in monitoring the exact temperature and monitoring repeated exposures to time out of refrigeration.
It is recommended that the vaccine be used as soon as possible after reconstitution. Protect vaccine from light at all times, since such exposure may inactivate the virus. Store reconstituted vaccine in the vaccine vial in a dark place at 2-8°C (35.6-46.4°F) and discard if not used within 8 hours.
Shelf life: 24 months.
