The SKYTROFA Auto-Injector

The auto-injector is an electronic, reusable

device for people needing injections

of SKYTROFA. It automates parts of the

procedure for injecting SKYTROFA. The

auto-injector is designed for personal

home use, so that the injections may be

given without the assistance of a medical

professional.

The SKYTROFA Cartridge

SKYTROFA comes in a single-use cartridge.

The cartridge has 2 chambers, 1 filled with

powder and 1 filled with water. The

auto-injector automatically mixes the

powder and the water during preparation,

making it ready for injection.

The Needle

The single-use needle comes with

SKYTROFA cartridges and is used for

injecting the medicine.
