Factor VIII and IX have a shelf life of two years. Recombinant products have a shelf life of three years. It is recommended that a close eye is kept on the expiry dates and when the product goes close to this date people should bring it into the Haemophilia Centre and it will be exchanged for fresher product. It is recommended that all products are best stored in the refrigerator, but time in normal room temperature will do no harm.
