Before You Get Started
Remove the Pen from the
refrigerator.
Leave the Base Cap on
until you are ready to inject.
Check the Pen label to
make sure you have the
right medicine and it has
not expired.
Expiration Date
Check the Pen to make
sure that it is not damaged
and inspect the medicine to
make sure it is not cloudy,
discolored or has particles
in it.
Wash your hands.
Choose Your Injection Site
• Your healthcare provider can help you choose the
injection site that is best for you.
• You may inject the medicine into your stomach
(abdomen) or thigh.
• Another person may give you the injection in your upper
arm.
• Change (rotate) your injection site each week. You may
use the same area of your body, but be sure to choose a
different injection site in that area.
