Nope. I will try Novolog cartridges with the InPen (for half units). I’ve used that delivery mechanism for Humalog in the past. If I have lousy results I’ll try to get prior auth to switch back to Humalog.

I haven’t heard anything about Novolog being discontinued in the US. Hopefully that’s NOT the case.

There are articles indicating there are some shortages. But not discontinued.

We’ve been getting ours no problem via CVS Mail order service. Last refill they sent us vials AND pens.

I have used Novolog and Humalog and employer plan continually switched based on better deals. I found Novolog to be better for me based on it works for me. (humalog took longer to kick in) So now get Novolog with discounted offer from mfg, wo using insurance.

For some, they act about the same.
