Troubleshooting

What do I do if the loaded on-body infusor status light continuously flashes red and I
hear beeps?

                                            

                   

                   

Stop using

the loaded on-body infusor. If the on-body infusor is attached to your body, 

carefully remove it. Call 1-844-REPATHA (1-844-737-2842) or visit www.REPATHA.com.
