Insulin Pen Case - Insulin Cooler Travel Case with 2 Cooling Ice Packs, Medicine Cool Bag for Diabetic Insulin Pen and Vials Storage by YOUSHARES (Black)

Product Information

Unopened insulin supplies should be generally stored at a cooler temperature between 36°F and 46°F (2°C to 8°C). Once at destination move to a convenient time but if this is shorter than 12 hours since your last injection you may need to give a smaller amount of your rapid acting insulin with your last meal. When I fly, I always have some Sprite (a sugar drink), extra medication for a week, and my insulin in my bag. If my luggage doesn't arrive, I always have this bag with me and my equipment and medication. However, it is an expensive choice coming in at 65 euro. But as far as insulin travel cases go, I’d say this doesn’t seem like a bad one.

if you're flying, get a letter from your GP or care team to say you have diabetes and need to take your treatment on to the plane (you may need to pay for the letter)

If the outside temperature is below 104°F, this combined method can keep your insulin between 36-45°F for 50 hours, and between 36-79°F for 70 hours. Place pen devices, lancets, test strips and needles in a transparent plastic bag in your hand luggage. Keep your travel letter with this.
