I will be taking allergy shots home they said put in fridge then take out 20 min then inject.will the vials still be good if lose power 12 hours?

Hard to say: The potency of some allergen extracts may decline when stored in unrefrigerated environment. However it may still be good if stored in a cool and dry environment after 12 hrs although one can never be sure. The higher the concentration the glycerine content in the extract, the more likely it will hold the potency longer.
