A weekly pen that sat in a hot letterbox is not a bargain. Semaglutide injections are proteins. Heat, freeze-thaw and sunlight can spoil them even when the carton looks fine. Tablets are more stable at room temperature, which is one reason some travellers prefer the oral line.
Follow the leaflet in the pack you receive. This article is a reminder, not a replacement for that leaflet.
Before first use
Unopened pens and vials are typically stored in a refrigerator, not the freezer door that ices over. Do not use a pen that has been frozen. Keep it in the carton to limit light. If a parcel arrives warm, photograph the packaging and write to the desk with the order reference before you inject.
Once a pen is in use
Many leaflets allow a limited number of days at room temperature after first puncture. Note the date you start. Do not put a used pen back into a household freezer “to make it last.” Discard it when the in-use window ends, even if liquid remains.
Airports and hot climates
Carry pens in hand luggage with a copy of the prescription if you have one. Checked baggage can freeze in the hold. Australia, New Zealand, the southern US and summer UK heatwaves all exceed typical room-temperature limits inside a parked car. Tablets (3 mg, 7 mg, 14 mg) avoid the cool-bag problem if that is the route on your script.
Ordering
We send unmarked tracked parcels to the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. You still need somewhere suitable to store an injection on arrival. Browse the Semaglutide category for the strength you were prescribed.
