Insuline Pins
Advantages and Disadvantages of Insulin PensThe reasons why some insulin users prefer insulin pens include:
Insulin pens are portable, discreet, and convenient for injections away from home.
They save time because there is no need to draw up insulin from a bottle - it is already pre-filled in the self-contained cartridge.
They usually let you set an accurate dose by the simple turn of a dosage dial, and that may make it easier to set an accurate dose for people who have vision or dexterity problems.
There are also reasons why insulin pens are not right for all users, including:
Insulin in pens and cartridges is often more expensive than insulin in bottles for use in syringes.
Some insulin is wasted when pens are used: one to two units of insulin are lost when the pen is primed before each injection; and there is usually some insulin left in the pen or cartridge (but not enough to inject) when they are used up.
Not all insulin types are available for use in insulin pen cartridges.
Insulin pens do not let you mix insulin types, which means that if the insulin mixture you need is not available as a pre-mix, two injections must be given - one for each type of insulin.
Insulin pens should only be used for self-injection. This is because the pen needle must be removed from the pen after each injection, and there is no way to completely protect the person giving the injection from getting accidentally stuck by the needle while he or she is removing it from the pen.
