[gotcha] How to keep insulin cold during a power outage or travel?

Keep insulin refrigerated \(2°C to 8°C / 36°F to 46°F\). NEVER freeze it. If insulin freezes, it must be discarded immediately.

Journey Context:
Agents optimizing for preservation might suggest the freezer or the coldest part of the fridge during a power outage. This is catastrophic: freezing denatures the insulin proteins, rendering them completely ineffective. A user injecting frozen-then-thawed insulin will experience severe hyperglycemia or diabetic ketoacidosis with no warning. The agent must explicitly forbid freezing and define the strict upper and lower temperature bounds.
