I use Allegro and they ship really fast.

Oh, and no prescription needed. :D

You could also use Amazon.com (no prescriptions needed). They deliver in two day with a prime membership.

I want to update this thread by noting that I have been using Allegro to purchase my intermittent catheters and am very satisfied with their service. By waiting to place my orders until Allegro had a significant discount on catheters, I was able to pay even less than even my former co-pay when I was using a medical supply house. :D So, I did not use my health insurance for the catheters at all.

For me, the best intermittent catheters were the hydrophilic catheters as they have so little friction during insertion and thus are more comfortable. My favorite has been the Coloplast Speedicath pre-lubricated hydrophilic catheters. These catheters are already lubricated inside their individual foil packaging so there is no water to add and no foil packet of water to break. Just open the package and use the catheter. I was able to get these excellent catheters from Allegro for as little as $1.85 each (during sales).

The above being said, my urologist has said that I now am able to stop using catheters, at least provisionally. :D I'll post a separate note about that.
