Has anyone else on the list taken double shots of 5 and have gotten the same results as just 1 shot of 10? Dale Begin forwarded message: Hi Janie,

I used to use the 5 pen Byetta 3 times each day, for about 4 months, (I'm down to 1 shot a day now.. yea! :), and I had no problem with my insurance. I have Tricare. And my supplemental insurance paid the $9.00 that Tricare didn't cover. Hope this helps. Cheryl from Florida I remember being told that there is a difference in taking the 10 pen one injection and 2 injections of 5 pen. Even though it seems 2 five's would be 10. It is not the same thing. I also know someone who has increased their byetta to 3 times a day with the doctor's permission. The problem with this I think they said was with the insurance companies. I do not believe they would pay for the extra dosage of byetta, so this would be an added expense by the user. <!--more--> If someone does use the byetta 3 times a day and insurance is covering all dosages please let us know on the list.
