Novopen 5/Echo and Frio pouch

Does anyone have experience with keeping one of those insulin pens in a Frio bag? I'm a bit worried about the moisture and the electronics.

Hi @Antje77 ,

I've never personally had any issue with the pen's memory function being stored in a Frio wallet.
If the electronics was fully submersed in water? That could be a separate issue..

Thanks! I've contacted my pharmacy (they sell Frio as well), I called Novo Nordisk who called me back after asking colleagues and I contacted Frio. No-one knew for sure.

Should have known to ask you guys first

I've also been caught in heavy rain (literally rain from all angles.) with the pen in my cargo pocket.
It's pretty safe to say road tested..

But I would advise on allowing your Frio to breath allowing the evaporation process.

Will do. No difference from pulling wet socks over your beer bottles
