Shipping GLP-1 Safely with Cost-Effective Temperature Controlled Packaging for Pharmacies
A national specialty pharmacy was under pressure to meet growing patient demand for GLP-1 medications like semaglutide, which have certain temperature requirements during shipping.
Their existing packaging system posed challenges including temperature excursions, high shipping costs, and inconsistent delivery performance.
ThermoSafe Biodegradable EPS: Designed for Specialty Care
To remove those risks, they selected ThermoSafe’s biodegradable EPS shipper – a high-performance insulated system that protects temperature-sensitive medications while reducing environmental impact. It combines the thermal performance of traditional EPS with materials that break down more sustainably.
Key Outcomes for the Specialty Pharmacy
- Proven performance to reliably ship GLP-1 medications cold with confidence
- Improved patient experience with lightweight, easy-to-handle packaging
- Environmental responsibility through biodegradable materials
Supporting URAC Compliance for a US Multi-Location Pharmacy
A regional specialty pharmacy with 10+ locations across one U.S. state faced growing demand to maintain strict temperature control standards for biologics and specialty medications.
However, the previous packaging system was inconsistent and lacked documentation needed to meet URAC guidelines.
ThermoSafe Biodegradable EPS: Flexible, Compliant, and Eco-Conscious
The pharmacy selected ThermoSafe’s biodegradable EPS system – a high-performance packaging solution that safeguards temperature-sensitive medications while aligning with sustainability goals. Designed to use common components across multiple shipper sizes, the system simplifies inventory and streamlines SKU management.
Why a URAC-Accredited Pharmacy Choose This Solution
- Simplified operations: Staff at all locations could use the same refrigerant packs and follow a single SOP, regardless of shipper size
- Improved compliance: The pharmacy leveraged ThermoSafe’s data to confidently pass URAC temperature control requirements
- Reduced environmental impact: Biodegradable insulation offered strong thermal product
