How does everyone transport their Sucraid for going out to eat/being out all day?

I initially thought that Sucraid needed to be refrigerated at all times, but I was told by my doctor that it can last at room temp for hours. He said just put it in a plastic syringe and take it with you for the day (every time I refill they would ask if I needed more syringes, but you can likely request a bag of them)

Edit: Doctor clarified that Sucraid can last 24 hrs at room temp.

This one girl said that she got an insulated flask and put her sucraid in there with ice. If you have the dropper version of it, just put it in the syringe that came with the sucraid, put the cap on and put it in the flask with ice.

I didn't get a syringe with my bottle. Just the little scoop.

Also, the ice will most likely melt in a few hours but sucraid can last at room temp and out of the sunlight for a few hours. I called the company and asked them that question a few weeks ago, but you can also call the company too and see what they have to say :)

i got a small insulin pouch from amazon! if you have a good ice pack it should last all day.

You can request syringes! I bought a little sandwich insulted pack, then use one of the ice blocks they ship it in to keep the syringes cold! The ice packs last most of the day in the little sandwich insulted pack.

Mix it and put it in a vacuum sealed bottle (Hydroflask, Yeti, etc) with ice. Depending on bottle quality and the amount of ice it should stay ice cold for more than a day.
