The CoolMeds GO isothermal case has been specially designed and validated to safely transport temperature-sensitive 2-8°C medication for 15 to 20hrs*.
It's important 2-8°C medicine doesn't go over 8°C or below 2°C, where it is in danger of freezing, as this may affect the efficacy of the medication. There's enough to think about when you're travelling without also having to worry about whether your 2-8°C medication is being safely chilled along the way.
The CoolMeds GO was designed in response to a growing need for a 2-8°C case that could hold bulkier pens and bottles and could go the distance whilst remaining as compact as possible.
What makes the CoolMeds GO special is that it has a cool cage which holds chunky pens, bottles, vials and syringes that don't fit into most isothermal cases. The cool cage secures and protects the medication in the case and ensures the cold is spread evenly around the contents. Please refer to the diagram which gives an indication as to what can fit in the CoolMeds GO case.
The CoolMeds GO comes with an integrated digital thermometer which provides peace of mind as you'll be able to monitor the medication's temperature without having to open the case. The internal thermometer batteries (2 x AG13 batteries) are also included and if you need spare batteries, these can be bought at most hardware stores and supermarkets.
The case is made from high-quality material with multiple layers of insulation for maximum protection. The thermal sleeve absorbs the initial excess cold and distributes it evenly through to the contents of the cool cage and protects the medication from freezing or overcooling.
It comes with 2 specially shaped CoolMeds cold packs which encircle the cool cage and offer a long cooling effect and durability during frequent use. These can also be bought separately as it is good to have spares and they should be replaced every 24 months as the gel denatures over time.
It is highly recommended you do at least one trial run before your journey to make sure you are familiar with using the case especially because conditioning the cold packs is the most important step. It will also give you time to ask us any questions you might have.
The CoolMeds GO comes with a detailed user manual which must be read before using the case. It can be helpful to take it with you to show airport security to prevent the case from being opened unnecessarily.
