You say you contacted them - just go there! If you wanted to know if a bar sells beer, would you contact them first? Ffs!

Pretty Difficult as i'm in the UK. At a guess i'm thinking you haven't a clue what happens to Diabetics if they can't get the Insulin formulated for them, and some of them need it 4 times a day, so ...............

Hi Steve, this is a forum where anyone can ask any question they wish. I'm not sure why are you replying in such a hostile manner? There is no place for this on the forum.

My wife is type 1, so I'm fully aware of the impact of diabetes.

Ok, I withdraw the ffs. I didn't know the OP is in the UK, but my advice is still valid!

Hello happyfellah 

Apologies - I assumed that with such a specific question that you are in Spain.

Insulin is easily available, but I doubt that farmacias are big on responding to messages from foreign countries!

Cheers
