How to travel on plane w/ meds that must be refrigerated?

[Nik's Mom]

Hi,
How do you all travel with medication that must be refrigerated? We have a 5 hour flight.
Thanks

with mine, (before the liquid ban) I put it in an insulated lunch bag with an ice pack. I also needed to have a letter from the doctor since mine was injected with a needle.

Small soft side cooler or insulated lunch bag with one of those small blue ice things. I think they allow regular ice as well for medications, but the blue packs are less of a problem.

Some people like Frio paks - a search on google on something like FRIO INSULIN will pull up places that sell them. They are packs that are water activated and reusable - no fridge required.

Once you figure out what you want to carry it in, here is the TSA page that discusses it!
