DS1 has been given penicillin and we are due to be away Wednesday night and all day Thurs (Longleat- staying in a travel lodge). Any ideas how to keep the meds chilled?

Could they keep it chilled at reception?

I would put it in a cool bag with ice blocks and leave it in the boot of the car. In fact I'm sure that's what I did do when we went away. I have accidentally left ds's penicillin out of the fridge for over 24 hours before when I phoned the pharmacist to ask what to do they said unless it had ben in particularly warm conditions it would be fine.
