I'm taking a trip to Vegas: Where can I buy Insuline and diabetic supplies?

I'm from Mexico. I'm on vacation with a diabetic patient. We seek all medical supplies for concern. However, I have curiosity about the need for a prescription in an emergency and have to buy anything while there. Thanks. Indeed, we have to follow a protocol for customs at the airport? Check with the airline since the protocol is. You do not know how foreigners Rx in the U.S., but check with Walgreens on this, we have the answer and Las Vegas is full of Walgreen. Bon voyage. Make all medical supplies with you. Do not put them in checked luggage in case of loss. If you have an emergency situation and need more insulin, go to the nearest hospital and ask for help. Happy holidays. my daughter had to go on a trip with drugs and called for the airlines. I do not think there is a problem with them. but I would like the paper to write a prescription if the medication or how to lose something. If you have an emergency, you can visit all the hospitals in Las Vegas and go to urgent care and they will help you to always take a prescription for insulin syringes and states differ in their requirements. Each pharmacy will have both. Although legally, a pharmacy, you can use insulin needles, but in practice is like pulling teeth. Many of you are no needles, if you have a recipe for it (like how you use insulin else?) Oh, darling, there are pharmacies on every corner of Las Vegas. I am a pharmacist and I work in Las Vegas. Finding a pharmacy is not a problem. If there is an emergency and she needs to see a doctor, there are tons of hospitals and clinics minute or quick care clinics (Note: Although you say "quick care" or "Minute Clinic" you still have to wait for hours if you're a walk-in). Check your telephone directory or on the Internet, if you find a place. All prescription medications require a prescription from a licensed physician wrote. If you have a recipe from Mexico, can not be completed in Las Vegas, not your doctor is licensed in the U.S. (the doctor an American DEA number) If you need insulin, you can buy without a prescription Humulin R, Humulin N and Humulin 70/30 can be bought without a prescription. You just go to the pharmacy and ask. But if they need another type of insulin, one recipe she has. If patients with diabetes are not on stable treatment, and you think there may be some problems, you may want to buy what the patient's health insurance during the entire trip. Health services are obscenely expensive and there is no break for tourists. If the duty is, call the airline and ask them for the most accurate recipe .
