Levemir Pen $17.00(US$)

Here in S.E. Asia, Levemir has just recently become available. A box of 5 pens is going for US$83.00 ($16.60, for one pen) at the wholesale level, and twice that amount from a hospital pharmacy. (street pharmacies are not allowed to sell it (yet)). I think you folks in North America are being fleeced. We don't have such inflationary devices as health insurance, or medicare here so prices are down to earth realistic. But if they can sell it at a profit for $16. here, . . . Why $160. over there. I must be missing something.

I have just moved to Levemir from Lantus, and find that (for me) Levemir, works much nicer. (and no headaches)
