Diabetics in Lanzarote
One of the most common questions we have been receiving recently is from diabetics who are moving over… concerned about getting their prescriptions.
Today Alan was with Miguel from the British Surgery of Lanzarote, and so Alan asked about getting insulin here in Lanzarote. Miguel said that if you are merely coming over for a break… then bring your own insulin with you. But he did say that you should not be shy about strolling into a surgery and asking for some. He did point out that the brands are all different here, so that you should make an appointment with your new doctor in Lanzarote as soon as possible so that they can arrange the most appropriate brand and dosage for you.
