frio alternatives?

jackvdbuk · Oct 27, 2015

hi,

looking to take 10-20 insulin pens , is there a cheaper method than frio wallets as its nearly £50 on wallets to transport them?

are they necessary on a 24 hour flight and if i put them straight into the fridge when i get to the place im staying?

The easiest way to use reusable pens and penfill cartridges.

Using this type of thermos: http://www.amazon.co.uk/STAINLESS-T...qid=1445952310&sr=8-7&keywords=thermos+flasks

You can get around 20 3ml penfill cartidges into the flask in their plastic bubbles and leave the boxes behind. Chill the flask with iced water before using it. That's the approach I took when going to Australia. It's also more robust than the Frio wallets.

In all fairness, you probably don't need it on the 24 hour flight. I had it because I was back packing and knew there were occasions where my stuff might get a bit warm.

yeah i really dont want to risk being on the road/travelling and not having access to a fridge for like 36-48 hours possibly. many thanks for the suggestion definitely cheaper
