Did you know that most medications that don’t need cold storage need to be stored at room temperature. Not near the stove or on top of the refrigerator. Consider that your asthma inhaler or heart medication has a big job to do, don’t risk its efficiency with poor storage practices. If you rely on prescription medications to manage health challenges you need to think about this.

MedActiv bags are designed to protect prescription medications so you don’t have to worry. We’ve got your covered!

Many medications are formulated to be effective when stored at specific temperature ranges. If the optimum temperature range is not provided the effectiveness of the drug may be compromised….rendering them less potent, or sometimes completely ineffective. Some drugs must be maintained at cold temperatures, many more need a room temperature environment. Failing to pay attention to this when traveling could leave travellers looking for a way to acquire new medications in a foreign country.

The MedActiv collection of bags is designed for exactly this reason. Make this part of your pre travel planning. Choose the bag that is right for you on our website

Does your child take Growth Hormone? Or a child of a friend?

Traveling with growth hormone is always a little tricky. This product is for children, who are not always conscious of the importance of taking their medication on time and under the right conditions. It is fragile and expensive, so it is absolutely essential that you find the right solution for the right type of travel.

MedActiv bags are designed to safeguard Growth Hormone to ensure it maintains the safe temperature and is not compromised. Visit our website to learn more. https://shop.medactiv.ca/

Growth Hormone (rGH) is made from fragile proteins that can be destroyed by temperatures outside the range of 2 to 8°C (36 to 46 degrees °F) for more than a few minutes at a time; and, therefore, requires temperature controlled storage. The rGH may be contained in a vial accompanied by syringes and needles, or in cartridge accompanied by pen and into which it is inserted, which is contained in a carrying case, and needles. MedActiv bags are designed for this purpose.

rGH may also be degraded or destroyed by the x-rays emanating from airport person and luggage scanners. Because of those factors and the medical necessity for daily use, temperature management and efficient storage is a necessity so the drug can remain with the patient during travel.

We helped many people travel safely with their temperature sensitive medications! It's always nice to hear from a happy customer.

"You spent a lot of time and effort outfitting me with the correct equipment to carry my Ajovy migraine medication to Europe. In the end, we went with the Prestige.

As it turned out, the Ajovy boxes were slightly larger than I had been told, so I ended up having to munch them in order to fit them in. However, fit they did, and it's a good thing that I had the Prestige. We left during Vancouver's first big snowstorm of the year, and there were considerable delays. Nevertheless, my medication arrived safely in Europe, and I just wanted to thank you again for your help.

May you have a great holiday season!"

Everything begins in France in 2003, summer of the infamous heat wave. Mr. Uwe Diegel, managing director of a medical business in Paris is expecting a visit from New Zealand of his diabetic brother, Dr Olaf Diegel. The two men have already built strong international reputations in the field of industrial design for cardiology and quite often work together on new research projects. Olaf, diabetic since the age of 17, is professor of industrial design at the Auckland Technology University. His job forces him to travel a lot to take part in international congresses. He is a well-versed traveler and is used to traveling with his insulin and keeping it cool using ice-boxes and cooler bags (insulin, like many other medications, is sensitive to heat and should be stored at a temperature between 2 and 8°C).

In August 2003, Olaf books himself into a small hotel near Auxerres in France. When he arrives at the hotel, he notices that there is no fridge in his hotel room (even though he had particularly insisted on this when making his booking). He needs a fridge to store his insulin. So he arranges with the clerk at the entrance desk to keep his insulin in the fridge in the kitchen.

Olaf does not speak French, coming from New Zealand. A few hours later, Olaf needs his insulin and goes down to reception to ask for it, only to discover that it was placed in the freezer by accident by someone in the kitchen. He is thus obliged to have the night pharmacy opened just to get some fresh insulin. Luckily, the problem is resolved easily enough.

A technology driven by a personal need

Back in Paris, Olaf meets his brother and they discuss the events. They decide, just for fun, to design the idea of a portable fridge, about the size of a mobile phone that would use a Peltier Effect to create cold without gas or moving parts. On paper, the idea should in theory work, so they decide to make a rough prototype using whatever they had available at the time (the battery was stolen from Uwe’s Video Cam).

The prototype actually works quite well, so the two brothers send the prototype to an industrial design contest run by NASA in the USA. The product becomes a winner at the contest, receives unexpected publicity and becomes the subject of an international story on the CNBC TV network. It then also receives an award at the Concours Lepine in Paris in 2005. All these events convince the two brothers to launch a first run of the Medifridge in 2005.

Today, the MedActiv products (MedActiv is the brand created by the two brothers to commercialize their products) encompass a full range of solutions for the transport and storage of all thermo-sensitive medications.
