$11 per month, that's only about double what it costs in most of the world. Wait... Still $11 PER PEN
Wtf did it cost before!!??
As a former pharmacy worker, anywhere from $40 to $200, depending on the patient's insurance. There's a reason Eli Lily and other companies monitor the supply truck drivers and call the cops if they stop.
They do what?
Probably monitoring the trucks so that if they stop they know they’re getting robbed.
