Insupen Pen Insulin Needle 31G 0.25Mm 5Mm 100 Pack

Description:

Insupen Pen Insulin Needle 31g 0.25 mm 5 mm 100 Pack is a sterile, single‑use medical device designed for precise and comfortable subcutaneous insulin injections. These ultra‑thin pen needles are intended for use with compatible insulin pens to support effective diabetes management in adults and children as directed by a healthcare professional. With a fine 31g (0.25 mm) diameter and a short 5 mm length, the needle helps minimize injection pain while ensuring accurate insulin delivery into the subcutaneous tissue. Each pack contains 100 individually packed, sterile pen needles, offering a convenient and hygienic supply for regular insulin users.

Indications:

• Designed for subcutaneous insulin administration in patients with diabetes mellitus (type 1 and type 2) using compatible insulin pens.
• Suitable for basal, bolus, premixed, and correction‑dose insulin injections as prescribed by a healthcare provider.
• Helps deliver insulin accurately into the subcutaneous layer to support blood glucose control.
• Appropriate for adults and children who require a shorter, finer needle to reduce injection discomfort (under medical supervision).
• Intended for single‑use only to maintain sterility and reduce risk of infection or needle dullness.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• This product is a medical device (pen needle) and does not contain pharmacologically active ingredients.
• Key components: ultra‑fine stainless steel needle (31g, 0.25 mm diameter, 5 mm length).
• Precision‑engineered, multi‑bevel needle tip for smoother skin penetration (exact bevel design For full ingredient information, please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website in available data).
• Plastic hub compatible with most standard insulin pens (specific pen models not listed; check pen and needle compatibility before use).
• Each needle is individually packaged and sterilized (sterilization method not specified in available information).

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as instructed by your doctor, diabetes educator, or nurse. The insulin dose, type, and injection frequency are determined by your healthcare provider, not by the needle.
• Single‑use only: use a new Insupen pen insulin needle for every injection.
• Step‑by‑step usage (general guidance):
  • 1. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water and dry well.
  • 2. Check the integrity of the needle packaging. Do not use if the blister or seal is damaged.
  • 3. Remove the protective seal from the pen needle without touching the needle tip.
  • 4. Attach the needle straight onto the insulin pen by screwing or pushing (depending on pen type) until it is firmly secured.
  • 5. Remove the outer protective cap and keep it aside for later disposal; then remove the inner cap carefully to expose the needle.
  • 6. Prime the insulin pen according to manufacturer instructions (usually by dialing a small dose and expelling insulin until a drop appears at the needle tip) to remove air and ensure accurate dosing.
  • 7. Select an appropriate injection site (abdomen, thigh, or upper arm) as advised by your healthcare provider and rotate sites regularly to reduce risk of lipodystrophy.
  • 8. Clean the injection area with an alcohol swab and allow to dry completely.
  • 9. Insert the needle into the skin at a 90‑degree angle (or as advised by your healthcare provider). In thin individuals or children, a skin fold may be required.
  • 10. Press the pen plunger fully and hold it down for several seconds (usually 5–10 seconds, or as instructed) to ensure complete insulin delivery.
  • 11. Withdraw the needle straight out from the skin.
  • 12. Carefully place the outer cap back on the needle without touching the exposed tip, then unscrew the capped needle from the pen.
  • 13. Dispose of the used needle immediately in an approved sharps container. Do not throw loose needles into household waste.
• Do not share needles or insulin pens with anyone, even family members, to prevent cross‑infection.
• Do not attempt to clean, bend, or reuse the needle.

Clinical Benefits:

• Supports accurate subcutaneous insulin delivery when used correctly with compatible insulin pens.
• Ultra‑fine 31g (0.25 mm) diameter and short 5 mm length help provide a more comfortable and less painful injection experience.
• Short needle length reduces the risk of intramuscular injection when proper technique is followed, helping maintain predictable insulin absorption.
• Individually sterile‑packed needles help minimize risk of contamination and injection site infection.
• Compatible with most standard insulin pens (where confirmed), offering convenience and flexibility for daily diabetes care.
• Single‑use design maintains needle sharpness for each injection, reducing tissue trauma and local irritation compared with reused needles.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• For subcutaneous injection of insulin only; not suitable for intravenous, intramuscular, or other routes of administration.
• Single‑use device: do not reuse, re‑sterilize, or share needles under any circumstances.
• Do not use if the sterile packaging is open, torn, or damaged, or if the needle is visibly bent or defective.
• Use with caution in patients with bleeding disorders or those taking anticoagulant therapy; consult a healthcare provider for appropriate injection technique.
• Patients with reduced vision, dexterity problems, or cognitive impairment should be supervised or assisted to avoid incorrect use or injury.
• Consult your doctor before use if you have severe skin infections, lipodystrophy, or scar tissue at potential injection sites.
• Always confirm compatibility of the Insupen pen needle with your specific insulin pen model before use.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, nursing, taking other medications, or having significant medical conditions such as severe kidney or liver disease, as your insulin regimen may need adjustment.
• Keep out of reach of children to prevent accidental needle‑stick injuries.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease; it is a delivery device to administer prescribed insulin.
• Follow local regulations and healthcare guidance for safe disposal of used needles and sharps.

Side Effects:

• Local reactions at the injection site such as redness, mild pain, burning, itching, or swelling.
• Small bruises or minor bleeding at the injection site, especially in patients on blood‑thinning medications.
• Injection site infection or abscess if aseptic technique is not followed or if needles are reused.
• Lipodystrophy (lipoatrophy or lipohypertrophy) at frequently used injection sites, usually related to poor site rotation or repeated trauma.
• Rarely, nerve irritation or pain if the needle is inserted improperly.
• Systemic effects such as hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia are related to insulin dosing and technique, not the needle itself; seek urgent medical attention if you experience severe dizziness, confusion, sweating, palpitations, loss of consciousness, or persistent high blood glucose.
• Seek medical advice if you notice persistent pain, significant swelling, warmth, pus, or hard lumps at injection sites.
