NovoPen 5 is a reusable pen injector designed for single-patient use by diabetes patients for the self-injection of insulin and is the culmination of more than 25 years of NovoPen experience. Due to additional memory function, NovoPen 5 records time and dose volume since last.

Novopen 5 is an insulin pen injector designed for diabetes patients to self-inject insulin. The pen has a dose pointer button, an insulin scale, and a cartridge that holds insulin. The pen has the capability to record the last dose volume in units, and each segment represents an hour elapsed since the last injection.

NovoPen 5 is a reusable pen injector and is designed for single patient use. The pen is used by attaching a needle to the pen’s cartridge holder, dialing the prescribed dose, and injecting the insulin under the skin.

Here are the basic steps for using the NovoPen 5:

  1. Wash your hands with soap and water.
  2. Check the insulin in the cartridge to make sure it is the right type and not expired.
  3. Attach a new needle to the pen and remove the outer cap.
  4. Prime the pen by dialing a unit and pressing the injection button until a small drop of insulin appears at the needle tip.
  5. Choose your injection site and, with one hand, hold the pen like a pencil and insert the needle into your skin at a 90-degree angle.
  6. Push the injection button all the way down and hold for 5 seconds before removing the needle from your skin.
  7. Dial back to zero and replace the outer cap.

Note that these are just general steps, and you should always follow the specific instructions provided by your doctor or nurse. Injection training may also be recommended to ensure proper usage.
