Traveling with diabetes

If travel is a part of your life, diabetes doesn’t have to tie you down! With a little planning, travel can be more manageable. Here are a few things to include in your plans before you leave:

Visit your diabetes care team and ask for extra prescriptions in case you need medicine or supplies while you’re gone
When flying, always carry diabetes medicines, insulin, and testing supplies with you. Do not check them with your luggage

Think about where you will store your diabetes medicines. Check your product’s patient information for the right way to store your diabetes medicines
Wear or carry your “I have diabetes” ID
Carry extra food with you
Check your blood sugar often. A change in schedule may mean changes in your usual patterns
