Can insulin be purchased OTC?
I have been reading a lot of information on insulin lately. I do not plan on taking it anytime soon, but i began to do research and read that it can be purchased OTC pretty much everywhere (Humulin R).

I searched online, i live in the US, i dont see any places that sell it without a perscription. Why is this, im confused?

You can get insulin OTC, except for humalog. Humalog needs a script.

OK, while trying to work up the balls to get some slin in person I looked online at CVS pharmacy. It says it's (Humulin R) a perscription item! I'm in Illinois, anyone know if the law is different here?

But then children with DIABETES - Prescription Laws says no script for slin or syringes in IL. Guess I'll just give it a go...

Certain states it is illegal without a script for both needles and insulin.

I had no clue that it is possible to buy without a script.

It's state dependent, some you need to jump thru hoops, others will hand you some Humulin-r no questions asked..
