How should I store Mounjaro when travelling abroad?
Store unused Mounjaro pens in the fridge at 2°C to 8°C in their original packaging, or use a cool bag with ice packs if refrigeration is unavailable. Use them within 30 days after opening, whether they are stored in the fridge or below 30°C. Always carry pens in your hand luggage rather than checked bags to avoid extreme temperatures and pressure changes during flights. At your destination, keep pens away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and in a secure, cool place, returning them to refrigeration when possible.
Key points:
- Keep unused pens refrigerated between 2°C and 8°C in original packaging.
- Carry pens in hand luggage, not checked baggage.
- Use a cool bag or insulated case for temperature control.
- After opening, the pens expire after 30 days whether kept in the fridge or below 30°C.
