insulin
units
. Insulin units may
not be the same
as syringe markings.
Ask your
healthcare professional what your dose should be for your Pen.
• Your ENTUZITY™ KwikPen
®
(Pen) is different from other pens. It dials 5 insulin units
with each click.
DO NOT count clicks of the dose knob to select your dose.
You
may get an under- or over-dose of insulin.
•
ENTUZITY is a concentrated insulin (500 units/mL). DO NOT transfer
ENTUZITY insulin from your Pen into a syringe or insulin pump. A severe
overdose can result, causing very low blood sugar which may put your life in
danger.
•
The Pen is for single patient use only. Do not share your Pen with other
people, even if the needle has been changed. Do not reuse or share needles
with other people. You may give an infection to them or get an infection
from them.
Read the Instructions for Use
before you start taking ENTUZITY and each time you get
another Pen. There may be new information. This information does not take the place of
talking to your healthcare professional about your medical condition or your treatment.
ENTUZITY KwikPen is a disposable prefilled pen containing 1500 units of insulin. You can
give yourself multiple doses using one Pen. Each turn (click) of the Dose Knob dials
5 units of insulin. You can give from 5 to 300 units in a single injection. If your dose is
more than 300 units, you will need to give yourself more than one injection. The plunger
only moves a little with each injection, and you may not notice that it moves. The plunger
will only reach the end of the cartridge when you have used all 1500 units in the Pen.
DO NOT TRANSFER TO A SYRINGE
SEVERE OVERDOSE CAN RESULT
