FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How to travel with your insulin or GLP-1, how to use and care for the Case, Cooler and Pen, plus everything about shipping and the warranty.
Can I take the insulin travel case on a plane?
Yes, in your carry-on. Check current TSA and airline rules before you fly, especially for gel packs.
Will the gel packs get through airport security?
It depends on each airport's and airline's rules, and they change. Check current TSA and airline rules before you fly.
Can I pack my medication in checked luggage?
We don't recommend it: the cargo hold can drop below freezing (32 °F) and your medication could freeze. Keep it with you.
Can I leave the case in the car?
Avoid leaving it in a parked car in the sun. The inside of a car gets much hotter than the air outside.
Does it work for multi-day trips?
Yes, if you refreeze the gel packs every night. At a hotel, ask for freezer access or use the BioAura Cooler.
Can I travel with the cooler?
Yes, it has a carry handle, but it runs on plug-in power, so it needs an outlet at your destination. On the way there, carry the BioAura Case with gel packs in your bag.
How do I use the gel packs?
Freeze them the night before and place them inside the case next to your medication. When you get home, rinse them and refreeze them.
How long does the case stay cold?
It depends on the outside temperature and how often you open it. That's why it has a thermometer: check the lid and you'll know where it stands.
Where can I see the temperature?
On the display on the case lid, without opening it. The cooler shows it on its digital panel.
What units does the case thermometer use?
Degrees Fahrenheit (°F), to one decimal place.
How do I set the cooler's temperature?
With the + and − buttons on the panel. The range is 32 to 64 °F (0 to 18 °C), and it holds the set temperature within ±1.8 °F (±1 °C), per the manufacturer.
How do I clean the case?
Wipe it inside and out with a damp cloth. Let it air-dry open before you store it.
How do I care for the gel packs?
Rinse them with water, dry them and keep them in the freezer so they're ready to go.
How do I clean the pen?
Use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Don't submerge it in water.
Will my pen or vial fit in the case?
Standard-size pens and vials fit. If you're not sure about your model, email us before you order and we'll confirm.
How big is the case and how much does it weigh?
8.46 × 3.54 × 2.28 in and 9.5 oz (270 g), per the manufacturer. It fits in a purse or backpack and hangs from your wrist by its strap.
How many pens fit in the cooler?
Up to 10 pens, per the manufacturer.
How big is the cooler?
8.3 × 4.3 × 3.9 in (210 × 110 × 100 mm) on the outside, per the manufacturer. It has a carry handle and fits in a suitcase.
Does the cooler have a battery?
No. The BioAura Cooler runs plugged in. When you leave home, carry the BioAura Case with gel packs in your bag.
What cartridges does the pen use?
Standard 3 mL cartridges.
What comes with the pen?
The BioAura Pen and its rigid case. Cartridges and needles not included.
What's the difference between the Cooler and the Case?
The Cooler plugs in and lets you set the temperature: use it at home, in a hotel or at the office. The Case is an insulated travel case with gel packs and a thermometer that goes in your bag.
What colors are available?
The Case comes in black, blue and turquoise. The Pen comes in blue, black, gold, green, pink and purple.
