What do people use for Pen needles when traveling abroad or just for a few days in UK
maybe overnight away a few days or on holiday for a couple of weeks in UK or abroad

I have been given 1l yellow container - BUT if going away for a couple 3day - a bit big to carry - I guess i could just put in a small tuperware box till i get back

seen a few travel boxes on amazon -
maybe overthinking
picking up the Pens and needles in a day or so
just using 1 perday to start with

A small, empty, plastic water bottle works well.

I'm not on insulin or any injectable drugs, but I find an empty test strip tub and excellent place to keep broken sewing machine needles.

Wouldn’t get many of mine in there. -[emoji[emoji6]] a day.
You can get mini yellow sharps bins. I removed the teeth so when you put the lid down it doesn’t seal. Have been using the same one eleven years.

Have no idea why it copied in the previous emoji ridden post.
I use four to seven a day.

I have the little yellow container for if going away for more than a week. If couple of days I use very small plastic container and then put in regular 1l when I get back

Thanks , I had seen the little yellow container but reviews say PEN plastic neededlsdont fit - so will probably use bottle

I use small rigid plastic screw top bottles. These often are purchased with sauces. They have a slim profile which means they can be slipped discretly into a small pack. The big problem with travelling is insulin. It preserves well at normal ksktemperatures. However, travel may be through very hot areas. In the summer it is not uncommon to be in very hot areas. I find the travel cool bags ideal, and they slip easily into small day back packs.

Plastic ziplock bag - one with new needles and another (if I remember) with old ones, otherwise they all get mixed in together.

I always put both caps back on and in many years of wandering around with them like this in my front jeans pocket I never had any problems.

Some vitamin and other supplements come in small and very robust screw-top containers. I use these for new and old pen needles when travelling.
