Hi everyone ! hope everybody is safe and well

I am a type 2 diabetic and rely on insulin 4 times a day to keep it under control.

my question is......how would i get the same insulin in Spain/Vera.?

we are considering relocating to Vera on a permanent basis but healthcare is an issue.......any advice is greatly appreciated

TIA

John

if entitles to you would register for medical treament at the local centre if you qualify and then the doctor would match it up for you on prescription.  If you have to take out private health care then the private doctor would do the same and you would cover the cost yourself.
