Diabetes Testing Supply

We encourage every diabetic who is traveling to pack a diabetic survival kit. This kit will bring you and your traveling companions peace of mind. You may come to find having this kit with you on a day-to-day basis is also beneficial. No matter the situation you may find yourself in, you will always be prepared.

Diabetic Survival Kit
Your kit should include all medications. This includes oral medications, as well as insulin. You can easily place a cold pack in your survival kit to keep your insulin at the proper temperature. Don't forget to add extra syringes to your survival kit. You should have a note stating the directions and dosage of each medication. The contact information of your physician is also a vital item to have in your kit.

You should pack your meter, extra batteries, your lancing device and extra lancets. You should include glucose tablets, or a quick-acting sweet for the times when your sugar may fall into a low range. When traveling, it is especially important to pack ketone strips. These should be used when your sugar is high, or you are ill. Most importantly, make sure you are wearing a medical identification bracelet stating you are a diabetic.
