[QUOTE="evilclive, post: 2057760, member: 488171"] Couple of things going on there. One is that you're probably not actually getting insulin, you're getting a modified form of it which may still be covered by a patent (though I know Lantus is past that, hence Toujeo coming along). Actrapid = human, novorapid = modified for example. And making the insulin isn't entirely trivial, it's not like making meth :-) The biggie of course is the somewhat dysfunctional US medical system :-( [/QUOTE]
