Over the counter
You may not need a pharmacy for this at all.
3 ML insulin isophane, human 70 UNT/ML / insulin, regular, human 30 UNT/ML Pen Injector [Humulin] is sold over the counter. The prices below are what pharmacies pay to dispense it on a prescription — the same active ingredient is on the shelf at a supermarket, discount store, or dollar store, usually as a store brand, for a small fraction of that. Dollar Tree, Aldi, Walmart and Costco all carry store-brand versions of common OTC medicines.
Check the strength before you switch. Prescribed strengths are often higher than what is sold on a shelf — the shelf box may be a lower dose per tablet, so you would not be taking the same thing at 3 count. Ask your pharmacist or prescriber to confirm the shelf product matches what you were prescribed.
Telepharmacy
In much of the country a pharmacist can verify and counsel remotely while the prescription is filled at a licensed hub. It carries far less overhead than a counter, and where it is available the cash price can undercut one.
We are not showing any yet — we have no verified telepharmacy price to put here, and an indicative one would be worth less than nothing. It is the next source we are adding.
