INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSULIN PEN USE
102
It is important to read, understand, and follow the instructions in the “Disposable Insulin
103
Delivery Device User Manual” before using. Failure to follow instructions may result in
104
getting too much or too little insulin. The needle must be changed and the Pen must be
105
primed before each injection to make sure the Pen is ready to dose. Performing these steps
106
before each injection is important to confirm that insulin comes out when you push the
107
injection button, and to remove air that may collect in the insulin cartridge during normal
108
use.
