Keeping an Injection Schedule on Track During Travel or Busy Weeks

Plan ahead, not around it

Before travel or a known busy stretch, check with the doctor or provider whether the schedule can be adjusted slightly if needed, and arrange support in advance rather than trying to manage last minute.

If travelling

• Carry medicine in its original packaging with the prescription, especially for air travel
• Check storage requirements for the destination and journey — some medicines need to stay cool throughout
• Identify in advance whether a trained professional is available at your destination if an injection falls during the trip

During a busy week

Set a reminder rather than relying on memory alone, and consider whether a professional can come at a slightly different but still appropriate time rather than skipping a dose entirely.

What not to do

Don't double up a missed dose without checking with the doctor first, and don't skip doses simply because the timing is inconvenient — raise it with the healthcare provider instead.
