Highlights from this day
- VialBot — Recon calculator: 20mg in 1.5ml = 2.5mg/ml. 08:01
- VialBot — Reminder set. I will post here in 8 days. 09:37
- still_here_2024 — the freezing worry is more room theory than published data for these specific compounds and we should keep saying so, thats just me 10:47
- still_here_2024 — i compared a canadian pharmacy quote against an american one on the same dose and the american one was more than double 11:03
- still_here_2024 — any figure in this channel is dated. canadian pricing and coverage both moved while i was reading about them insulating against cold is the same kit as insulating… 11:35
how long is transit into canada running
🙏4
transit was 17 days for me with a week of nothing in the middle at a customs facility
follow up canadian pharmacy pricing was well below the american equivalent in every comparison members have made in here
diabetes covered, weight not

does the postal service or the courier handle winter better
follow up a frozen and thawed reconstituted vial is the one thing i would not use, and i cannot point you at a study for that
the border question comes up a lot and nobody here will tell you what to declare. that gets stopped quickly
that was a pilot not policy

depot delays in january, has anyone had a parcel sit out in the cold
an ontario member reported around 350 canadian dollars a month at a pharmacy in 2024. one price at one dose
right so is provincial coverage as much of a patchwork as it looks from outside
anyone in ontario able to say what theyre actually paying
a member in the territories reported everything arriving eventually and nothing arriving quickly
i had a parcel sit in an unheated depot at minus eighteen for two days and the powder tested fine
Reminder set. I will post here in 8 days.

sorry to jump in how does coverage work if you have diabetes versus if you dont
is a frozen lyophilised vial ruined or is that fine
freezing not cooking
whats a realistic monthly figure with insurance
cheaper than the us
how do people insulate against cold rather than against heat
what does a month cost in canadian dollars at a pharmacy
member reported 2024
the freezing worry is more room theory than published data for these specific compounds and we should keep saying so, thats just me

the last leg across the prairies in february is the risk. the flight is heated and the truck is not
i compared a canadian pharmacy quote against an american one on the same dose and the american one was more than double

quebec seems to be different again, is that right
any figure in this channel is dated. canadian pricing and coverage both moved while i was reading about them
insulating against cold is the same kit as insulating against heat. the pack is a buffer in either direction
there is no national picture. asking what canada does is asking thirteen questions at the same time
postal handled winter better than the courier for me, mostly because the courier van sat outside for hours

canadian pharmacies stocked it reliably in the periods members reported on, better than the uk did at the same time
its provincial
