[QUOTE="Deleted member 527103, post: 2637682"] Insulin does not need to be kept cold. if you read the leaflet that comes in the box, you will see that it is designed to remain at room temperature for a month. So, provided you are not leaving your insulin in direct sunlight, it is fine during your travel. If you are going on holiday, take care about putting it in a fridge. Some hotel fridges can be too strong and will freeze the insulin. This is worse than just leaving them in an air conditioned room. You may want to look into getting reusable pens. 8 cartridges will take up far less space on your luggage than 8 pens. Plus they are more robust and produce less waste. [/QUOTE]
