I don't worry too much about mine.I think this needing to keep insulin cool is for the older style insulins such as humalin and mixed insulins.I'm not sure about this though.
But that said I have not had any problems with my Novalog or Lantus insulins.They have a shelf life of 30 days and thats just about what I get out of them.However they do say to store in a cool place,but I never do and haven't noticed any loss of performance from them,for lack of a better word.
I do get insulin in three month supplies and I do keep the stuff I'm not useing in the refrigerater at home.
