Allstar Reusable Insulin Pen

Surgical

Device used to administer insulin injections for the management of diabetes mellitus (Type 1 and insulin-requiring Type 2 diabetes).

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.

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.

Injection site pain, redness or swelling, bruising, lipodystrophy (lumps/pits at injection site), needle-stick injury

For use as directed by a doctor/diabetes educator. Do not share the pen (infection risk) even if the needle is changed. Use a new needle for every injection and dispose of needles in a sharps container. Ensure correct insulin cartridge type/strength as prescribed; wrong insulin/dose can cause severe hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia. Do not use if damaged or if dosing mechanism is not functioning; seek training before first use.

Not applicable for the device itself; insulin interactions depend on the insulin used (e.g., beta-blockers may mask hypoglycaemia, corticosteroids may raise blood glucose, alcohol increases hypoglycaemia risk).

Store the pen as per manufacturer instructions; generally keep clean and dry, away from excessive heat, direct sunlight and moisture. Store insulin cartridges as per insulin labeling; do not freeze insulin.
