Being on IV infusion therapy doesn’t mean you have to put life on hold—including travel. Whether it’s for work, a family visit, or a well-deserved vacation, many patients safely and comfortably travel while continuing their infusion treatments. Here’s how to prepare:

⸻

1. Plan Ahead with Your Pharmacy Team

Let us know at least 1–2 weeks in advance of your trip. We’ll help coordinate:
• Medication delivery to your destination (if possible)
• Extra supplies like flushes, dressings, and tubing
• Documentation for TSA or other security checks

⸻

2. Check with Your Healthcare Provider

Make sure your provider approves travel and that you’re stable enough for the trip. Bring a copy of your treatment plan and your provider’s contact information in case of emergency.

⸻

3. Know How to Store and Handle Your Medication
• Some medications require refrigeration—bring a cooler or medical-grade insulated bag.
• Keep medications with you (not in checked luggage).
• Avoid extreme temperatures during transport.

⸻

4. Flying with Infusion Equipment

TSA allows medical devices and supplies onboard. Carry a physician’s letter and label your medications clearly. Be prepared to explain your equipment at security checkpoints.

⸻

5. Stay on Schedule

Use phone alarms or a medication tracker to maintain your infusion schedule. If you’re crossing time zones, we can help you adjust your administration times safely.
