Hi Anna, yes that`s the right thing to do according to Gilead`s published prescribing information for Sovaldi which says to "Store at room temperature below 30°C (86°F)"

Here`s a link to where you`ll find that sort of information, and you can also find it in our Knowledge Base as a `sticky` thread (Sovaldi (sofosbuvir) Full Prescribing Information)...

http://www.gilead.com/~/media/Files/pdfs/medicines/liver-disease/sovaldi/sovaldi_pi.pdf

Best of luck, and don`t worry, you`ll be fine!  Keep us posted!  smile

Room temperature will be fine, Anna. Keep below 86* F.  It may have been shipped on ice to protect against overheating in transit.

I received my Meds today (Solvadi/Riba) and the Solvadi was packed on ice.  My pharmacy said to store at room temp.  Has anyone else received their Solvadi on ice.  Should I be refrigerating?  Should start TX within the week. Gulp
