PREPARING YOUR InDuo™

INSULIN DOSER TO INJECT INSULIN

To use the InDuo™ insulin doser to inject your insulin, you must first insert a Penfill® 3 ml cartridge, attach a NovoFine® 6 mm or 8 mm needle and prime the InDuo™ insulin doser.

How to load Penfill®

Before inserting a Penfill® 3 ml insulin cartridge check that it is full and intact (e.g. no cracks). Do not use Penfill® if any damage is seen, or if more of the rubber stopper is visible than equal to the width of the white bar code band.

If your Penfill® cartridge contains an insulin suspension (cloudy insulin) such as Novolin®ge NPH or Novolin®ge 30/70 you must first mix the insulin. To do this hold Penfill® in your hand and carefully move your arm up and down 10 times as shown in your Penfill® package insert.
