? Question regarding Lantus vials vs pens ??

I have been using Lantus from vials but a friend gave me a sealed box of pens and the directions say to leave out of the refrigerator after opening. Does this make sense ??
I am used to keeping all insulin refrigerated. What do y'all do ??

 

The only reason they don't want the pens refrigerated is because it can cause problems with the
"dial a dose" mechanism

Since we use regular insulin syringes and draw the insulin out of the pens instead of using the special pen needles, you keep them refrigerated

 

thank you so much for your reply !
