Using a FlexPen involves a few key steps to ensure accurate and safe injection of your medication. Here's a guide based on the available information:
-
Needle Insertion: Insert the needle into your skin.
-
Dose Injection:
- Press the green push-button all the way in until the 0 lines up with the pointer.
- This action injects the set dose.
-
Post-Injection Wait:
- Keep the needle in the skin for at least 6 seconds after you've fully depressed the green push-button.
- Continue holding the green push-button all the way down during this waiting period.
-
Needle Removal: Keep the green push-button pressed all the way in until the needle has been pulled out.
By following these steps, you help ensure the full dose is delivered and prevent medication from leaking out. Always consult with your healthcare provider or pharmacist for detailed instructions specific to your medication and FlexPen model.
