If you are using insulin Humalog, read this
https://www.democraticunderground.com/1016368075Kevin Favro, who has Type 1 diabetes, sometimes rationed supplies of Humalog or used expired vials because the drug cost him so much under his health insurance plan. Earlier this year, he paid $630 out of pocket for a 100-day supply to meet his plan’s deductible. “I think it’s disgusting how much we have to pay for it,” said Favro, a 33-year-old lawyer in Irvine, Calif. After recently discovering he could pay less if he just bought the lower-priced duplicate himself through Amazon.com’s online pharmacy, Favro is now paying $105 for a 125-day supply of vials.
