I have ran out of metformin, and no longer have insurance is there anywhere I can buy it online without a prescription? I had found a site but I can’t find it anywhere!

Best of luck finding it, often the questionable legal status of the mail order companies online mean they come and go! In the meantime, Berberine has been said to have similar sugar lowering properties and is available without prescription. Metformin is for sure a great drug, but it actually only lowers sugar a small percentage, you may well be able to get by with Berberine until you find your pharmacy. Google it! Good luck!

Check out Walmart. A 90 day supply of 500mg 1 daily was $10 when I filled it this week. Costco is also a good choice, I use mail order and some meds are $9 for 90 days while Walmart is $29.
