“I have had two patients come in to the pharmacy requesting strips for their insulinx machine to test glucose and ketones. Both are on a ‘ketone wave’ diet at the local gym. when I have asked do they have diabetes they have replied no so I have told them they have to pay the normal retail.
Both have told me they get their strips for $10.00 and never have to pay the high price that we have. As they do not have diabetes I do not know how the other pharmacy is doing this. Is there a product that I am unaware of ?”
