Lantus insulin

Hello I live in Barcelona and I would like to buy insulin, I have no sec.Social recipe.

Well see your doctor head and put it on the health card

It is not for me, they just diagnosed my cat diabetes and I have to put insulin

Hi Lou.You have to prescribe your veterinarian then and with the recipe they give it to you without problem.
All the best!!

The veterinarian has given me the role but in itself it is not a recipe.What I intend is to buy at a better price to which the insulin has than the pharmacy.

But that cannot be because the veterinary recipe does not discourage you anything, the cat is not covered by social security.
With the vet recipe you can buy it but at a normal price.

Ahhh ok.You want to buy it from someone
I wasn't learning.Sorry

Hi Marga that's why I wanted if someone has it to share expenses.The sale price in pharmacy is high and safe will expire me before finishing it because the dose I have to put is very small.Do you have or do you know someone?

The problem that I created that you are going to find is that most of those we use Lantus is in Boli, and for the cat that does not work for you because you will need the vial and special syringes of less units per ml.
Good luck and think that in the cats the. Diabetes is sometimes reversible !!

Marga if you live in Barcelona I would buy you a ball, because I can get it with the syringe.

No ... I don't live in Barcelona.

Ohhhh thanks anyway, to see if I find someone who does the favor, greetings.

You can use the expired insulin, that the only thing that happens is that it loses some effectiveness, but you can put more doses.

I see a little dangerous to put more doses, cats are very little;Calculate thus to eye how much you put it more for the loss of effectiveness ..... a family cat with diabetes punctured two units of Lantus every twelve hours and also took it with the syringe from the pen as if it were a road.Hypoglycemia in animals like all hypoglycemia are dangerous, as they cannot tell you that they are wrong ... and on top
Have you taught to look at the sugar?We did it in the capillaries of the ears, in the pads as they are as sensitive it seems that it hurts a lot.

Thank you Beti for the moment I have to go to the veterinarian every week to control them to which you normalize a little we will already do it from home.And with respect to the dose for the moment we have started with 0.25 every 12 hours.
Greetings,

Hi Lou, you can inject the insulin with the ball.I have a diabetic cat and I only bought the needles so far.I have finished the bolis and I have to buy.Until now they had given them to me but I don't have that possibility anymore.Expiration is long, about 1 year and a half.
I don't know when this post is but we can share

I would give you a couple of feathers but you live very far, although I imagine someone from Barcelona will do the same, luck.
