Fragile glass vials of pharmaceutical goods must be packed in cell dividers with Top and bottom cushioning. Set trays inside a sturdy shipping box and stabilize using void-fill so nothing moves. For moisture-sensitive medical drugs, pair this with moisture-barrier inner bags and desiccants.
International shipments of medical drugs typically demand a detailed commercial invoice, packing list, and any authorizations required by the importing country. Many destinations also ask for Certificates of Analysis, proof of GDP-compliant handling, and clear temperature instructions for cold-chain medicines. Verify requirements with your customs broker before shipping.
