Always buy on line as I don't get prescription free. Boots don't always stock my type Gluco RX Nexis but Diabetes.co.uk do, and they are the best price.
If you are diabetic, you get free prescriptions. I have had a glucose meter and supplies since I was diagnosed 13 years ago and that was before I was on insulin. The only recent restriction at my GP practice is that we were all offered a choice of one of four meters (free) and our repeat prescriptions were then changed for the appropriate test strips and lancets. When I run out of my current supply I will have to abandon my handy USB meter.
Just wondering if anyone buys their test strips online, some of the prices look pretty reasonable compared to 'Boots'. I did a quick search on here and didn't spot a thread (although I'm sure there must be one). Does anyone have a recommended online store they use and / or a recommendation for what is a good price?
I am UK based and I use the Accu-Chek Aviva.
Thanks.
