My insurance un my Part D Medicare has hit the donut hole.  Does anyone know how to get insulin without paying 100 a vial.  I use three of Lantus and three of Novalog.  That six hundred a month and I do not have that kind of money

Contact the Makers of each Insulin, their sight on line, their phone numbers should be toll free. Then go to your pharmacy for assistance.

When I started Insulin was 6.40 a bottle...

 

good luck, Ireally hope you find aid

The Emergency Room in most hospitals will give emergency shots, don't go without.
