Common Questions about Traveling
Are you carrying the right medications for your trip?
Before traveling, ensure you have all essential medications packed—especially your chronic medications including rescue inhaler and nebulizer with the correct outlet converters, (preferably a battery operated one too) an epi pen if you have severe food or environmental allergies, your glucose monitor especially if you are on insulin or extra sensors. Bring enough daily medications for the entire trip, have a plan of care in case something goes wrong. Keep your medications in their original packaging with a doctor’s note. Tip: Pack your inhaler, nitroglycerin, epi pen in your carry-on and keep it accessible at all times.
