I’m sure this option is better than nothing but please do your research!

Hey I know I keep reblogging criticism of this post but like just one more to be super clear and keep all of it in one place–

1: This is a very outdated photo. This is from 2013, and you can no longer get otc insulin in any state, from any pharmacy. You need to talk to your doctor about the possibility of changing if you want to do this, so if you do at least hear them out on the risks.

2: The insulin in modern dosing pens is different from this kind of insulin. As the photo says, it requires dosage calculations and is not simple like the insulin in pens. It is easy to get wrong and a mistake can be deadly!

3: Since you can’t get this over the counter, the pharmacy will not be able to give it to you without a prescription authorizing the change from your doctor. I’m sure everyone here is a reasonably decent person, but just to be clear: Do NOT yell, harass, or otherwise make life difficult for the pharmacists and technicians based on an unverified photo on the internet thanks

4: not being able to afford your medications is a serious thing! please talk to your pharmacist or the technician about finding a way to make it more affordable via coupons or discount programs. trust me, they want to help! If you switch from a big name pharmacy like CVS or Walgreens or Walmart to a smaller grocery store or local pharmacy, they may be able to devote more time to helping you. (please note though that local pharmacies often cannot take goodrx or rxsaver, call ahead to check)

    Please do NOT do this! No only is it highly dangerous and quite a few people have died doing this, but its also illegal...
