Diabetic Supply Cases

Diabetes can be managed effectively when the partnership between the patients and health care professionals is focused on good health and good eating practices. Another key factor is keeping diabetic supplies organized and in a safe and convenient place. There is a wide selection of organizers available on the market that can aid in simplifying the life of a person living with diabetes. These diabetic supply cases are specially designed to store and protect diabetic supplies. Drugstores, pharmacies and medical supply shops carry these organizers, so they are easy to find. Another place to shop for diabetic supply cases is on the Internet. A quick search yields a wide variety of sources if you or a loved one would prefer to order a case online.  

There are four common types of diabetic supply cases: daily, wallet, travel, and pen and meter wallets. Supplies such as vials, syringes, test strips, pumps and meters are not included in the cases. 

Daily Organizer Case 

The compartments in the daily organizer are designed to store small quantities of diabetic supplies. These cases come in various sizes and models, so it will be easy to find one that suits your needs. Three days of supplies can be stored in the cases which may include a cool compartment to store bottles of insulin. The room temperature compartment is used for syringes, meter, test strips, and other supplies. These are moderately priced under $20. 

Wallet Organizer 

This is a miniature version of the daily organizer. Typically, the wallet organizer is used for one day supplies, and can easily fit into a purse or briefcase. 

Travel Organizer 

The travel organizer case is a jumbo version of the daily organizer. These can hold up to two weeks of supplies. Some come with a detachable medical waste pouch, where you can safely store medical waste until it can be disposed of properly. High quality cases usually retail for under $30. 

Pen & Meter 

For people who use an insulin pen delivery system, this is a good choice for a diabetic case. The pen & meter has pockets to hold insulin vials, meters and other supplies. Like the wallet version, this is small enough to fit into a purse or briefcase, and also has built-in elastic straps to hold your insulin pen. 

Regardless to you or your loved one’s need, there are diabetic supply cases available to keep things easily accessible.
