Heres what you can bring in your carry-on: Insulin in any form (vials, insulin pens, pre-filled syringes, or loaded into your pump) Unused and used syringes (used ones must be in a sharps disposal container) Insulin pumps and all pump supplies (tubing, infusion sets, pods, batteries, cartridges) Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) sensors, transmitters, receivers, and chargers Lancets and blood glucose meter with test strips Glucagon emergency kit (injection or nasal spray) Fast-acting carbohydrates: juice boxes, glucose tablets, gels, or hard candy even in containers larger than 3.4 oz Ice packs or frozen gel packs to keep insulin cool Ketone strips If you use a GLP-1 medication or another injectable (such as semaglutide or tirzepatide), TSA permits these as well
In my experience, the biggest problem facing patients is how to use the drug
In 2021, the FDA approved a third semaglutide formulation, Wegovy, for chronic weight management for those with obesity or overweight and at least one weight-related condition
Pump and CGM chargers may require an adapter or a voltage converter abroad
In Australia, Ozempic is approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, while Wegovy is approved for weight management
