Why Insulin Costs So Much
The most common problem associated with insulin is diabetes. Notably, the lack of manufactures to produce insulin is one of the main culprits of out-of-control costs. Pricing of insulin is very complex and involves many layers of middlemen including wholesalers, Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), healthplans, and pharmacies. Within the system, there is no agreed-upon price for any insulin.

Anaphylaxis and Epinephrine
Anaphylaxis is a severe, sometimes life-threatening, allergic reaction. Epipen's manufacturers have increased the price of a two-pack to over $600, even for people with health insurance. At Beyond Primary Care, we have made our own auto-injector and self-injector devices for our patients for a fraction of the cost. We discuss anaphylaxis and the purpose of these life-saving devices.
