If you inadvertently pull the ESYSTA
®
BT Pen out of the skin before the dosing
button has locked into place, stick the needle back into the skin – without
twisting the dosing button. Inject the remaining quantity by completely
pushing in the dosing button until it locks into place. If you suspect that the
set dose has not been fully injected, please do not inject any additional units,
but instead check your blood-sugar values after a suitable period of time.
The next application of insulin should only occur after a sufficient length of
time and with the knowledge of the current blood-sugar value, so that you can
be sure that you are not injecting too much insulin and thereby triggering a
dangerous state of hypoglycaemia.
6.11 Completing the injection
Once you have injected the insulin, remove the disposable needle by carefully
placing the outer cover over the needle and then screwing the needle off, using
the protective cover. Dispose of the needle along with the outer cover, in order
to prevent injuries. For proper handling and disposal of needles, please also
follow the instructions for use of the respective manufacturer. To avoid the risk
of painful infections, use each needle only once. After each injection of insulin,
put the cap on the ESYSTA
®
BT Pen and store it in the case provided, in order
to prevent damage and contamination.
