Ensure insulin dose accuracy • Make sure you never recap your insulin pen with the needle still on, as this leaves an open passageway into the medication cartridge • Attach a new needle before each injection and immediately remove after the injection • Check the flow of medication through the needle before every injection • If medication continues to drip from the needle after injections, hold the needle in the skin longer when injecting, to ensure delivery of the complete dose • Refer to the instructions of the pen manufacturer for proper injection technique with their device
Advanced technology — a difference you can feel BD engineers every BD Ultra-Fine™ Pen Needle and Insulin Syringe to be so thin and so smooth that we can guarantee a more comfortable injection. Thanks to technology, like:
Fine point technology: A three-step process that shapes the tip of every BD needle as finely as possible for easier penetration.
Electro-polishing: A process that polishes away microscopic burrs giving every needle a smooth finish.
Micro-bonded lubrication: A special double-lubrication process that creates more glide and less friction.
