Anyone have a recommendation for which cooler bag to buy for traveling on a plane? I need to keep my plegridy between 2 to 8 C. There are so many options for insulin online but not for my big MS plegridy pen. I am traveling to Morocco and will need to take two plegridy pens.
You can keep Plegridy at room temperature for up to 30 days - maybe just a cool bag as its a hot country and put it in the fridge when you get where you are staying
Kinda challenging… Morocco is too hot to leave the plegrity injections outside. It’s not recommended to leave it in room temperature if there is more than 26 C. I hope your hotel has a fridge.
You may need a travel container just like the one I have in the picture.
It was offered to me by the clinical services for the injection pens, the same people who arrange my plegridy deliveries. I think you can use it for a couple of injection pens, not sure if you can put ice packs in to keep it cool. Maybe ask the MS nurse? Did you have a word with the airline? They may have a fridge on the plane to store it inside. I only used what I showed you but it was winter when I traveled to NY, and I did not need ice packs. Btw, I recommend you to use assisted travel. It will spead up your boarding the plane, you won’t have to queue in control, and you will skip all queues in immigration. Have a word with the airline to arrange this. Best thing I have arranged in my travels.
The clinical services privided me with a letter, on the post, to show at the airport. It reads that the medication is vital for me to have with me.
