In India, insulin ranges from ₹7 ($0.08) to ₹480 ($5.75) per ml. A 10ml vial of regular insulin at Jan Aushadhi Kendra costs about ₹70 ($0.85), while a 3ml cartridge of Tresiba can cost about ₹1,400 ($16.75). The gap between the most affordable & most expensive ones is high

Sheer mockery! So concerning when pharma companies take advantage of the hope of people living with diabetes in India! It's important to clarify that while insulin is an essential and life-saving medication, the idea a homeopathic oral tablet is misleading. ❌❌ ⚠️ BE SAFE ⚠️

HISTORY In 1922 scientists went to a hospital ward with diabetic children, most of them comatose and dying from DKA. They went from bed-to-bed and injected the children with insulin. As they began to inject the last comatose child, the 1st child injected began to awaken. See ALT
