Preparing a dose
Remove Pen Cap and check the cartridge in your KwikPen. The solution of HUMALOG U200 should be clear and colourless.
2. Wash your hands.
Check for insulin flow (Priming)
1. Set the dose to 2 units.
2. Hold the Humalog Kwikpen 200 units ml with the needle pointing up and tap the side of the pen so that any bubbles float to the top.
3. With the KwikPen still pointing up, press the Dose Knob in until it stops and 0 is seen in the Dose Window. Hold Dose Knob in and count slowly for 5 seconds. Priming is complete when a stream of insulin comes out of the needle. This is very important to ensure the correct dose is injected.
4. Only after seeing a stream of insulin at the needle tip can you proceed to dial up your required dose. There may still be some small air bubbles left in the pen. These are harmless, but if the air bubble is too big, it may make the dose of your injection less accurate.
Injecting a dose
1. Wash your hands.
2. Choose a site for injection. Use of injection sites should be rotated so that the same site is not used more than approximately once a month
3. Remove outer needle cap.
4. Stabilise the skin by spreading it or pinching up a large area. Insert the needle as instructed by your doctor.
5. Press the Dose Knob and push firmly until the Dose Knob stops moving. Count to 5 slowly before removing the needle from the skin.
6. Pull the needle out and apply gentle pressure over the injection site for several seconds. Do not rub the area.
7. Using the outer needle cap, unscrew the needle and dispose of it safely. Do not reuse the needle. NEEDLES and PENS MUST NOT BE SHARED.
Further injections
1. Check your Humalog Kwikpen 200 units ml before each injection.
2. Before every injection, check for insulin flow. Do this by dialling 2 units and pressing the Dose Knob with the pen pointing up. Do this until a stream of insulin comes out of the needle.
3. Stop using the KwikPen if the correct dose can no longer be dialled. The KwikPen will not allow you to dial a dose greater than the number of insulin units remaining in the cartridge in the KwikPen.
4. You can see how much insulin is left by looking at the gauge on the side of the cartridge in the KwikPen. The scale on the cartridge shows how many units you have left. If there is not enough for your dose, you may either:
a. Give the partial dose and then give the remaining dose using a new KwikPen.
b. Give the full dose with a new KwikPen.
