How should I take Needle Novofine?

Do not bend or damage the needle before use. These needles are sterile and for single use. Sterility is guaranteed if needle seal is unbroken. Needle reuse is closely related to tissue damage and metabolic control. A needle that has been used more than once has lost its original sharpness. The smooth silicone coating is lost, and the tip may be bent. In relation to metabolic control, a needle left on a pen-device between injections, can act as a pathway for evaporation of insulin leading to changes in insulin concentration. In a similar way, the formation of insulin crystals inside the needle can change the insulin composition and act as a barrier for free insulin flow.

How should Needle Novofine be stored?

Keep out of the reacg of children and pets. Needles are for single use only. Discard the needles appropriately after use.
