What happens if Wormers freeze?

I was wondering what happens to the quality if a wormer freezes?
And its Valbazen?

Read the directions on all your drugs. IF freeze is below the temps on the directions than throw it out. I keep nearly all my drugs in the fridge in my goat section, we can't keep anything out in the barn like this because of our heat and humidity, yours is because of freeze. Freeze and heat will ruin most everything. Vicki

Well, if you're not sure, I guess you could do a fecal, use a dose of the wormer, and do a repeat fecal to see if it did anything against the worms?

Heat is usually a lot more destructive/dangerous than cold on pastes, etc. but manygoatsnmore gave you a good suggestion. Do you have a vet you can call and ask?
