I’ve had a few people ask whether PBS was actually going to de-list Fiasp. None of us wanted it to be real.
They have now quietly made the announcement, buried within the monthly list of changes.

What a disgrace ?
Suggest we all try writing to our local federal MPs about this as well as the change.org petition
We all need to write to our local Federal Members Health Minister & Shadow Health Minster asking them to intervene on the behalf of all diabetics using this insulin.
It also couldn’t hurt if we wrote to the Editor of the major newspapers & all national news programmes.
Thank god for your blog! Saw your previous post and realised I had a script for FIASP so got it ordered yesterday and picked up/paid today.
As a side note – assuming it doesn’t come back, and the other ultra-rapid insulin isn’t added to the PBS anytime soon, what’s your recommendation for default fastest acting? NovoRapid?
All I can do is refer to my “Insulin timings” article from December.
I am torn between stocking up, and just giving a big F you to the manufacturers of fiasp and moving on. I don’t wanna give them another red cent.
Now to try and find my profiles from when I was using humalog….
