Tips to Manage Your Medication While You Travel

tips-to-manage-your-medication-while-you-travel

When you need to routinely take certain medications, it can feel daunting to travel. This is especially true when traveling to a location with a different time zone. Fortunately, planning and refilling your medications ahead of time from your local good neighbor pharmacy will eliminate those problems to ensure medication adherence and optimal health.

As your trusted pharmacy in Cocoa Beach, Florida, we will share effective tips to help manage your medication as you travel:

  • Prepare a travel health kit.

    Your travel health kit should be in a carry-on bag with all the essential health items. This includes your prescription medications, over-the-counter medicines, first aid kit, and your prescription itself. Be sure to keep medicines in their original, labeled containers to make it easier to get past security.

  • Check the temperature beforehand.

    When you are traveling by plane, use a carry-on bag to protect your medications from extremely hot or cold temperatures. If you are traveling by car, avoid leaving the medicine in the glove compartment or the trunk. For medications that need to be refrigerated, use an insulated lunch bag. Your local independent pharmacy can help determine how to store your medications as you travel.

  • Determine any time changes.

    If you are traveling across time zones, this may complicate your medication schedule. Consult your pharmacist or doctor about your schedule. Set an alarm on your phone or watch to help you maintain the same interval between doses.
