How Allstar Reusable Insulin Pen works

A reusable insulin pen is a mechanical device that delivers a measured dose of insulin from a compatible insulin cartridge through a pen needle. It allows dose setting and accurate subcutaneous delivery to help control blood glucose levels.

How to take Allstar Reusable Insulin Pen

Use only with compatible insulin cartridges and a new sterile pen needle for each injection. Prime the pen before each use as per the user manual, dial the prescribed dose, inject subcutaneously (abdomen/thigh/upper arm), and hold for recommended seconds to ensure full dose delivery. Rotate injection sites; do not share the pen.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Contact your doctor or diabetes nurse for advice — do not take a double dose to make up for a missed injection.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause severe low blood sugar, leading to fits or unconsciousness — this is a medical emergency. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
