ReliOn insulin
Just saw a few minutes ago on the ReliOn Facebook page that they are asking to be notified if your Walmart is out of insulin. They would need the name / location of the store.

Re: ReliOn insulin
Happened to me last Christmas. I was horrified but everything worked out okay obviously. Just went to one of the THREE Walmarts in Lincoln, NE to choose from. Such a love hate relationship I have with that company...

Re: ReliOn insulin
My mother used to make me feel shame whenever I went to walmart...since Ruby's diabetes I'm a regular.

Re: ReliOn insulin
That's helpful for me since we are using Novolin now. But interesting they would switch back from Humulin to Novolin so soon. Wonder what the background story is on their contract.

Re: ReliOn insulin
Seems kind of out of the blue. No forewarning they were switching up.

Re: ReliOn insulin
Here is a chart comparing insulins that had been on the ReliOn site a few years ago. The chart indicates there might be some minor differences between the Humulin-N and Novolin-N. I don't recall anything major when we changed from Novolin to Humulin two years ago, but I'll probably back off about 10% on the dosage and run additional tests for a few days when I switch over to Novolin.
