Cheaper alternative insulin
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

General Query
I was diagnosed with diabetes in June 2021, where my HBA1C had gone to 13 and with a sudden BP Shoot.
Doctor prescribed me with a tablet Verifica M 50/500mg
Currently my HBA1C is 5.9 and my sugar levels fasting is 90 and post meal is 113
I went to a doctor if we can reduce the dose and the doctor advised to take VERIFICA SR 100mg before lunch and no meds before dinner and now when I am monitoring my sugar the fasting sugar is 106 & 108,
Is it fine?
Or shall I go see another doctor?
