Yes, Levemir is available in vial form. Many insurance companies select the vial form over the pen form because the vial costs a lot less.
Just use Google to find information on Levemir from Novo Nordisk. Check the prescribing information; it'll indicate that it is available in vial form. |
I am not familiar with NDC. I googled it and and it gave me NDSAC (National Drug Scheduling Advisory Committee), is this the same thing? I don't really understand it. Though, i can inquire about it through the pharmacist.
I looked through the internet regarding Levemir. It does come in viles, yay! But looking through the Canadian sites, i did not come across any Levemir sold in a vile. All pens. Perhaps, they dont send it over here? I may have by accidentally, not see the information, but so far...I have not seen any. ??
Thanks for the advice JasonJayhawk. Appriciate it very much!
Any Canadians using Levemir in viles?
