I'm trying to decide the best way to get the Lantus.
Do folks here prefer the SoloStar or the vial ?
Do you get it at your pharmacy or mail order, has anyone ordered it from Canada?
I seen Mark's in Canada and they are so much cheaper but I would like to hear some feedback. Do we just fax them the script?

I believe my initial purchase will be one SoloStar at $93.00 and then have my vet fax a script to Mark's if folks here can recommend the place.
 
Using the Solostar pen is the most efficient way to use Lantus. You use a regular syringe and draw the insulin out the same as you would with the vial. Since the pens are only 3ml you can easily use all the insulin before it loses effectiveness as long as you refrigerate it.

I am in Canada myself so I buy directly from my pharmacy, but most of the US people here will buy from Mark's and have had not complaints about the service.
