Are you planning to travel this season to visit family and friends? Traveling during the busy season can often be a hectic experience. On the day of your trip, you might find yourself rushing to pack some last minute supplies, loading the car full of suitcases, or hurrying to the airport to catch a flight. The last thing you want to be worried about on your hectic day of travel is the storage of your prescription medication! At Marlboro Drug Company, we have you covered. Take a look at five travel tips below to ensure that your medication is safely packed and ready to go for your trip!
1. Prior to leaving on your trip, ensure that you have enough medication to last throughout your stay. If you need refills, make sure to contact Marlboro Drug Company before you leave!
2. When packing your bags, ensure that your prescription medications are stored in the original container from the pharmacy. Do not travel with medications in ziploc bags or pill organizers.
3. If you are traveling with liquid or injectable medication on an airplane, inform the TSA officer at the start of the screening process.
4. To ensure that your medications are not lost with any checked luggage, keep your medication with you in your carry-on bag.
5. As you are traveling, make sure that any of your temperature-sensitive medications are stored properly according to guidelines on the label. Don’t leave temperature-sensitive medications in a cold car overnight!
