The benzyl alcohol preservative inhibits bacterial growth, making it ideal for reconstituting peptides that will be used over multiple research sessions
102 Compared with the structure of human GLP-1(7-36), the amino acid sequence of albiglutide contains an arginine at position 8 (in GLP-1, this residue is lysine), and two modified GLP-1 peptide chains are fused to human serum albumin (HSA), thereby greatly extending its half-life

Athletes using GLP-1s will need to closely watch their diet and training to make sure they maintain muscle (perhaps while dealing with the vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea often associated with GLP-1s)
However, if your travel involves extreme heat or lasts longer than a single dose, refrigeration is best
