• To see how much insulin is left in your TRESIBA
®
FlexTouch
®
Pen:
o Turn the dose selector until it stops. The dose counter will
line up with the number of units of insulin that is left in
your Pen. If the dose counter shows 80, there are at least
80 units left in your Pen.
o If the dose counter shows less than 80 , the number
shown in the dose counter is the number of units left in
your Pen.
Giving your injection:
• Inject your TRESIBA ® exactly as your healthcare provider has
shown you. Your healthcare provider should tell you if you
need to pinch the skin before injecting.
• TRESIBA
®
can be injected under the skin (subcutaneously)
of your upper legs (thighs), upper arms, or stomach area
(abdomen).
• Change (rotate) your injection sites within the area you choose
for each dose. Do not use the same injection site for each
injection.
Step 11:
• Choose your injection
site and wipe the skin
with an alcohol swab
(See Figure M). Let the
injection site dry before
you inject your dose.
(Figure M)
Step 12:
• Insert the needle into
your skin (See Figure
N).
o Make sure you
can see the dose
counter. Do not
cover it with your
fingers, this can stop
your injection.

Step 13:
• Press and hold down
the dose button until
the dose counter
shows “0” (See Figure
O).
o The “0” must line up
with the dose pointer.
You may then hear or
feel a click.
• Keep the needle in
your skin after the dose
counter has returned to
“0” and slowly count to
6 (See Figure P).
o When the dose
counter returns to
“0”, you will not
get your full dose
until 6 seconds
later.
o If the needle is
removed before
you count to 6, you
may see a stream
of insulin coming
from the needle tip.

o
If you see a stream of insulin coming from the
needle tip you will not get your full dose. If this
happens you should check your blood sugar levels
more often because you may need more insulin.
Step 14:
• Pull the needle out of
your skin (See Figure
Q).
o If you see blood after
you take the needle
out of your skin, press
the injection site
lightly with a piece of
gauze or an alcohol
swab. Do not rub the
area. (Figure Q)
Step 15:
• Carefully remove
the needle from the
Pen and throw it
away (See Figure R).
o Do not recap the
needle. Recapping
the needle can
lead to needle stick
injury.
• If you do not have
a sharps container,
carefully slip the
needle into the outer
needle cap (See Figure
S). Safely remove the
needle and throw it
away as soon as you
can.
o Do not store the
Pen with the needle
attached. Storing
without the needle
attached helps
prevent leaking,
blocking of the
needle, and air from
entering the Pen.

• Put your used TRESIBA

FlexTouch
®
Pen and needles in a
FDA-cleared sharps disposal container right away after use.

o can be closed with a tight-fitting, puncture-resistant lid,
without sharps being able to come out
o upright and stable during use
o
leak-resistant
o properly labeled to warn of hazardous waste inside the

• When your sharps disposal container is almost full, you will
need to follow your community guidelines for the right way to
dispose of your sharps disposal container. There may be state
or local laws about how you should throw away used needles
and syringes. Do not reuse or share needles or syringes with
another person. For more information about the safe sharps
disposal, and for specific information about sharps disposal
