Hi, I’m soon to start Teriparatde. I will soon need to travel by car to go to a family funeral. The car journey will be about 6 hours and staying in B&Bs Has anyone got any advise with regards to cooler bags and the practicalities of keeping the medication at correct temperature when away from home. Thanks in advance

Travelling with medicines is a really important topic and we’re very sorry to hear that your travel is for a family funeral.

Have you considered a diabetic cooler travel case? You can get them on Amazon.

So sorry for your loss Hopeful.
As the Moderator has said there is lots of useful information on here following the links they posted.
I gleaned lots of helpful tips but the best solution I found was from Amazon, a travel cylinder which takes the Teriparatide pen with ice blocks and kept mine cool for over 6 hours, but then converts into a little plug in cooler that kept mine nice and cool on a cruise ship for 8 days. A perfect solution and no need to try and source a fridge where you stay at B&B which is a faff and the room fridges often arnt cool enough.
Mine cost £50 ish reduced from £70 on a Prime day and easily takes several Sondelby Teriparatide pens.
I also bought a small case just for storing at home in the Fridge.
Good luck and hope it all goes smoothly 
Thank you. I saw the post your talking about and ordered the flaks from Amazon. It arrived yesterday and it looks great, just what I need. A big help, thanks for taking the time to message. Hope your coping okay.
