Novolin is available as a pen without prescription. Costs a bit more ($45 for 5 pens).



That fixes the pen issue, but it's still not the same insulin most doctors prescribe and can't be easily substituted without medical consultation. Having it available inexpensively and without a prescription is a compromise, per Novo Nordisk themselves.
