After committing to lowering the list price of Levemir and some other insulins by as much as 75% last year, Novo Nordisk recently announced that it will discontinue Levemir. The Levemir FlexPen is now discontinued as of April 1st, and the vials on December 31st. #insulin4all

[Lija, the j is silent @Lija27]

I just refilled my daughter's #insulin. It took 11 days and required:
6 calls to insurance,
3 calls to the pharmacy,
3 calls to the PBM,
2 calls to the endo,
1 call to the pharmacy helpline.
This is what it takes to access insulin in America. This is insanity.

And this is what it’s like when things are fully in stock 😑. Now imagine the type you use (or that insurance demands you use) is temporarily unavailable.

Eli Lilly's CEO received a 24% pay increase, and now makes $26,600,000 (or ~ 106,400 insulin vials) a year.

It's the first week of Ramadan! This is a time when divine rewards are believed to be multiplied, and is also a time of fasting, which can be challenging for people living with diabetes, so they are exempt.
