[QUOTE="M80, post: 2750822, member: 348697"] That is interesting , because there was a lot of confusion getting it from the chemist. They said it was the pre filled that had been prescribed ( Tresiba) however this was not possible to get , so I am using the reusable. Made sure they were different colours, and with one injection per day the long acting I keep in the same place if home. Yes, it is correct they are struggling to keep up with the production of the new weight loss drugs. It seems to me a very unethical decision to take away medication used by type 1 diabetics in order to manage all the orders now coming in for those new drugs, obviously they are making incredible profits from the new weight loss drugs, but type 1 diabetics actually need insulin to stay alive. Hence my rage, however, as long as there are good alternatives it’s fine - and there is. When it comes to cost, I still question the decision , the company delivers to many countries and not everything is affordable . I hope this does not affect anyone in that respect. That would be immoral. I read an article where a nurse working for Doctors Without Borders expressed her concern . [/QUOTE]
