A member asked:
My friend claims that she has insulin that is cloudy and jelly like, is it possible that it froze, what is that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Insulin: Insulin is a protein, and like egg white and other proteins, it can "cook", "freeze" or otherwise go bad. If it does not look right, and especially if it is not working to lower glucose, take it back to your pharmacy and get a replacement.
