Does Alprostadil (Mono-Mix) Need to be Refrigerated?

Getting conflicting Google information. It sounds like it doesn't need to be refrigerated but needs to be mixed from a powder into a solution which is good for 1 day at around 25°C?
Mayo Clinic's website is contradictory....it says: https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supple ... g-20067404
Store in the refrigerator. Do not freeze.
Alprostadil for Injection while in the powder form can be stored at room temperature (between 15 and 25 °C or 59 and 77 °F) for 3 months. After it is mixed, the solution must be used immediately or within 24 hours and not refrigerated or frozen.
Also, is mixing normal with Alprostadil? Or does it come in a ready to use vial?
