Maybe it's worth mentioning that if you have any kind of insurance, you actually pay far, far less than that. US pricing is weird for most medical things.
As a person with diabetes (though I do not need insulin at the moment) I may notice this stuff more than most people.
Man, am I prolix.
Insulin costs up to hundreds of dollars *per month*, not per dose, in the USA, and that's artificial. It's much cheaper overseas. See https://www.vox.com/2019/4/3/18293950/why-is-insulin-so-expensive
