HC Deb 19 July 1993 vol 229 c2W
Dr. Spink

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if the insulin pen and the needles it uses are available on prescription.

Dr. Mawhinney

Insulin pen injection systems and the needles they use are not available on prescription. Their inclusion in the general practitioner prescribable list must, like all new additions to the list, be subject to the availability of resources.
