Made for the diabetic market, the Frio Cooling wallet is an excellent option for those who worry about keeping their EpiPens cool in hot climates. According to the website, "The FRÍO® Cooling Wallet: The most simple and convenient cooling system now available for medication. "FRÍO® cooling wallets are the ultimate stylish accessory for the safe and convenient transport and storage of insulin, and other medications that must be kept cool".The principle is simple. Activate the wallet by immersing it in cold water for 5-15 minutes. Crystals within the panels of the wallet then expand into a gel form, which remains cool for several days - relying on only the evaporation process for cooling. Then towel dry the outside cover and it's ready to go!Although activated by water, a feature of the product is that after towel-drying, the FRÍO® wallet is dry to the touch.It is re-usable and can be used either continuously or intermittently."

Thanks for the information. I ordered the Legbuddy from www.omaxcare.com and my teenage son loved it. Finally I found something he likes to carry the Epipen. Thanks
