Cheaper alternative insulin

2022-02-28 05:58:55
Doctor has prescribed Ryzodeg 30-70 12units and 14 units morning and night. After noon 1 udapa 5 mg and Tagon M 500mg morning and night. Hb1Ac is 12.6 prior to starting the meds. Diabetic since age 40. Has been using insuman comb 50-50. But now its not available anymore. Can you suggest a more economic alternative to Ryzodeg. We find it a bit costly. Preferably a pen with cartridges. Thank you
