    It's the concentration of the insulin that determines what syringe to use. If you use U-100, it means that Lantus has 100 Units/ml, and you can not use U-40s.
    The brand of the syringe shouldn't matter, as long it is a U-100.

    I've found two Canadian sites that have U-100s and where the other syringe specs match what I have now.

    I have sent the links to my vet to get her ok on them.

    Also, I emailed the oncologist's assistant two links for Palladia. It runs about $8 - $10 per tablet and is much less expensive online. They need a prescription, of course. Crossing my fingers on that one.

    Thanks!

    Yay! My vet approved the one site's online syringes, free delivery in Canada. $19.99 vs $36.96 at my pharmacy.

    That's fabulous! I'm glad you found that site.
    I get most of my cats' meds online and I save a lot of money. Even though I get a discount at the vet since I work there, the meds are still cheaper online.
    As long as the kitties are up-to-date on their exams and bloodwork, all their meds get approved.

    I hope Cole's oncologist approves the online meds. Fingers crossed for that also.
