    The conservatives in Canada are switching people to a biosimilar insulin to save money. They save $2 per pen. The kicker? A vast majority of people are noticing that the biosimilar doesn’t work as good, and they need 2-3x more units to get the same effect.

    Now I’m no mathematician, but there goes your $2 savings when someone is using 2-3x more pens than they were.
