Hope for mail order insulin!

I recently received a shipment of insulin from Medco, my ins. company’s required mail order service.. and I am shocked at how well it was packed! It was also shipped Next Day Air.

Just thought I’d share the positive experience. It hasn’t always been like this – it used to arrive in just a lightly padded envelope with one, maybe 2 cold packs.. shipped from Las Vegas.

For 5 vials of insulin, the box is pretty big:

Thick polystyrene foam liner:

Extra bubble wrap and 3 cold packs:

The insulin was inside this thick foam padded envelope with extra bubble wrap and another cold pack inside:
