Guest guest Posted July 14, 2006 Report Posted July 14, 2006 I imagine the Medicare Part D Drug Prescription program has not been helpful to some folks like me. I had been receiving several meds, including Eli Lily Humalog pens , through medical assistance programs. I was able to get a box of 5 pens for a co-pay of only $12. Well, now I need to buy Humalog pens, and the 2 prices from a local pharmacy and the Costco pharmacy were $140 and $136 respectively. That's not in our budget, so I'm going to have to have my wife prepare regular syringes when I would have normally used the pen, but also I am very seriously looking into buying a box of them through a Canadian pharmacy. Does anyone use a Canadian pharmacy who lives in the US? In my research, I found one Canadian pharmacy that has something called a Humapen. It uses Humalog cartridges which I noticed were in the $69 range for 5 3 ml cartridges. The Humapen only costs about $3 on this one site. Anyone know anything about this device as well as using the cartridges? Thanks. Dave Quote
