Here is photo of most everything (minus a bunch of site injectors, since habits are hard to break) we used in a month treating diabetes. I would note that the huge amount of paper that is wasted on product inserts is probably the easiest thing to address electronically. Overall, it is less waste that I thought, i.e. I think I can fit all of it inside the one t90 box.

Wow. Any of that plastic recyclable? Yes, lots of paper waste, but at least it can go in the recycle bin.

Good questions. The paper is recyclable and goes in that bin. The sites injectors don’t have a code, so not sure if they are recyclable or not, I think not, since they have the needle in them. Fair amount of plastic as well.
