SECTION 4 (cont.)
After the injection, check the dose indicator window to make sure it shows zero (0). If it does not show zero, you did not receive your full dose.
For example: If you dial 25 units and there are only 20 units in the PenFill cartridge, the number 5 will appear in the dose indicator window following the injection (25-20=5). This means you only received 20 units and need to inject 5 more units. If this happens, proceed with the following steps to get your remaining units of insulin dose: a. Note the number of units in the dose indicator window. b. Remove the NovoFine needle
(see step 20). c. Unscrew the barrel of the
NovoPen device from the
NovoPen 3 PenMate system. d. Remove the empty PenFill cartridge (see steps 26 and 27). e. Insert a new 3 mL PenFill cartridge (see steps 5 to 10). f. Screw the barrel of the NovoPen
3 device into the NovoPen 3
PenMate (see step 11). g. Attach a new NovoFine needle

To make sure that the insulin has been injected, do the following:
• Check that you can see the control line (solid white line) at the top of the insulin scale (above the number 300).
• Check to see if your skin is wet where you gave the injection.
If you cannot see the control line after the injection or your skin is wet, you did not receive your full dose of insulin and need to do a mechanical function check. See steps 21 and 22 to perform a mechanical function check of NovoPen 3 PenMate system.
If you suspect that your NovoPen 3
PenMate is not working properly, call
Novo Nordisk at 1-800-727-6500 so we can review your injection technique with you.

What to do if the 3 mL PenFill cartridge is nearly empty
25 If you use a suspension insulin
(white and cloudy), do not inject if you can see the rubber piston in the small inspection window. At least 12 units of insulin must be in the PenFill cartridge for adequate mixing with the glass ball.
With the NovoPen 3 PenMate system, it is possible to select a dose that is larger than the number of units left in the PenFill cartridge. If there is not enough insulin in the PenFill cartridge for the whole dose, you will be able to see the number of units you still need to inject in the dose indicator window after the injection.
To get the remaining units of your dose, refer to Section 4 “Giving the injection”, Page14, a through j.
When you get near to the end of a PenFill cartridge, you may need to give yourself two injections to receive your full dose. Always check the dose indicator window after giving an injection. If zero (0) does not show in the dose indicator window, you did not receive your full dose. See Section 4 “Giving the injection” on page 14 for instructions on how to get the remaining units of your dose.

Guidelines for storing the NovoPen 3 PenMate:
• Store the NovoPen 3 PenMate system (with the PenFill cartridge inside) at room temperature (below 86
◦
F [30
◦
C]).
DO NOT store the NovoPen 3
PenMate system in a refrigerator or areas where there may be extreme temperatures or moisture, such as in a car. Once the PenFill cartridge is punctured (in use) inside the NovoPen 3 PenMate system, NovoPen 3
PenMate system should be kept at room temperature below 86°F (30°C).
Stored at this temperature, the PenFill cartridge can be used for the amount of days listed in the 3 mL PenFill cartridge “Information For The Patient” leaflet for the type of insulin you are using.
• Store the NovoPen 3 PenMate system without the NovoFine needle attached and with the NovoPen 3 PenMate cap placed in its position. Leaving the needle on the NovoPen 3 PenMate system can cause the insulin to leak. This may change the concentration (strength) of a suspension insulin (white and cloudy).
• For information on storing PenFill cartridges, see the “Information For The
Patient” leaflet that comes in the PenFill cartridge box.
• The expiration date on the PenFill cartridge is for unused cartridges when stored in the refrigerator.

INSULIN USE IN DIABETES
Your physician has explained that you have diabetes and that your treatment involves injections of insulin or insulin therapy combined with an oral antidiabetic medicine.
Insulin is normally produced by the pancreas, a gland that lies behind the stomach.
Without insulin, glucose (a simple sugar made from digested food) is trapped in the bloodstream and cannot enter the cells of the body. Some patients who don't make enough of their own insulin, or who cannot use the insulin they do make properly, must take insulin by injection in order to control their blood glucose levels.

Each case of diabetes is different and requires direct and continued medical supervision. Your physician has told you the type, strength and amount of insulin you should use and the time(s) at which you should inject it, and has also discussed with you a diet and exercise schedule. You should contact your physician if you experience any difficulties or if you have questions.
TYPES OF INSULINS
Standard and purified animal insulins as well as human insulins are available. Standard and purified insulins differ in their degree of purification and content of noninsulin material. Standard and purified insulins also vary in species source; they may be of beef, pork, or mixed beef and pork origin. Human insulin is identical in structure to the insulin produced by the human pancreas, and thus differs from animal insulins. Insulins vary in time of action; see PRODUCT DESCRIPTION for additional information. Your physician has prescribed the insulin that is right for you; be sure you have purchased the correct insulin and check it carefully before you use it.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This package contains five (5) Novolin
®
R PenFill
®
3 mL cartridges. Novolin R is commonly known as Regular, Human Insulin Injection (recombinant DNA origin). The concentration of this product is 100 units of insulin per milliliter. It is a clear, colorless solution which has a short duration of action. The effect of Novolin R begins approximately ½ hour after injection. The effect is maximal between 2½ and 5 hours and ends approximately 8 hours after injection.
The time course of action of any insulin may vary considerably in different individuals, or at different times in the same individual. Because of this variation, the time periods listed here should be considered as general guidance only.
This human insulin (recombinant DNA origin) is structurally identical to the insulin produced by the human pancreas. This human insulin is produced by recombinant
DNA technology utilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae (bakers' yeast) as the production organism.
INSULIN DELIVERY SYSTEMS
These Novolin R PenFill 3 mL cartridges are designed for use with Novo Nordisk
®
3 mL
PenFill cartridge compatible insulin delivery devices, with or without the addition of a
NovoPen
®
3 PenMate
®
, and NovoFine
®
disposable needles.
STORAGE
Insulin should be stored in a cold (36° - 46°F [2° - 8°C]) place, preferably in a refrigerator, but not in the freezer. Do not let it freeze. Keep Novolin R PenFill cartridges in the carton so that they will stay clean and protected from light. The
Novolin R PenFill cartridge that you are currently using should not be refrigerated but should be kept as cool as possible (below 86°F [30°C]) and away from direct heat and light. Unrefrigerated Novolin R PenFill cartridges must be discarded 28 days after the first use, even if they still contain Novolin R insulin. Never use
PenFill cartridges after the expiration date which is printed on the label and carton.

Never use any Novolin R PenFill cartridge if the insulin becomes viscous (thickened) or cloudy; use it only if it is clear and colorless.
IMPORTANT
Failure to follow the antiseptic measures listed below may lead to infections at the injection site.
- Disposable needles are for single use; they should be used only once and destroyed.
- Clean your hands and the injection site with soap and water or with alcohol.
- Wipe the rubber stopper on the insulin cartridge with an alcohol swab.
PREPARING THE INJECTION
Never place a single-use disposable needle on your device until you are ready to give an injection, and remove the needle immediately after the injection. Follow the directions for use in the instruction manual for your insulin delivery device.
PenFill cartridges may contain a small amount of air bubbles. To prevent an injection of air and to make certain a full dose of insulin is injected, an air shot must be done before each injection. Directions for performing an air shot are provided in your insulin delivery device instruction manual.
GIVING THE INJECTION
1. The following areas are suitable for subcutaneous insulin injection: thighs, upper arms, buttocks, abdomen. Do not change areas without consulting your physician.
The actual point of injection should be changed each time; injection sites should be about an inch apart.
2. The injection site should be clean and dry. Pinch up skin area to be injected and hold it firmly.
3. Hold the device like a pencil and push the needle quickly and firmly into the pinchedup area.
4. Release the skin and push the push-button all the way in to inject insulin beneath the skin. After the injection, the needle should remain under the skin for at least 6 seconds. Keep the push button fully depressed until the needle is withdrawn from the skin. This will ensure that the full dose has been injected.
5. Do not inject into a muscle unless your physician has advised it. You should never inject insulin into a vein. Follow the directions for use of your insulin delivery device.
6. Remove the needle. If slight bleeding occurs, press lightly with a dry cotton swab for a few seconds do not rub.
Note: Use the injection technique recommended by your physician.
USAGE IN PREGNANCY
It is particularly important to maintain good control of your diabetes during pregnancy and special attention must be paid to your diet, exercise and insulin regimens. If you are pregnant or nursing a baby, consult your physician or nurse educator.
INSULIN REACTION AND SHOCK
Insulin reaction (hypoglycemia) occurs when the blood glucose falls very low. This can happen if you take too much insulin, miss or delay a meal, exercise more than usual, or work too hard without eating, or become ill (especially with vomiting or fever).

Hypoglycemia can also happen if you combine insulin therapy and other medications that lower blood glucose, such as oral antidiabetic agents or other prescription and over-the-counter drugs. The first symptoms of an insulin reaction usually come on suddenly. They may include a cold sweat, fatigue, nervousness or shakiness, rapid heartbeat, or nausea. Personality change or confusion may also occur. If you drink or eat something right away (a glass of milk or orange juice, or several sugar candies), you can often stop the progression of symptoms. If symptoms persist, call your physician - an insulin reaction can lead to unconsciousness. If a reaction results in loss of consciousness, emergency medical care should be obtained immediately. If you have had repeated reactions or if an insulin reaction has led to a loss of consciousness, contact your physician. Severe hypoglycemia can result in temporary or permanent impairment of brain function and death.
In certain cases, the nature and intensity of the warning symptoms of hypoglycemia may change. A few patients have reported that after being transferred to human insulin, the early warning symptoms of hypoglycemia were less pronounced than they had been with animal-source insulin.
DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS AND COMA
Diabetic ketoacidosis may develop if your body has too little insulin. The most common causes are acute illness or infection or failure to take enough insulin by injection. If you are ill, you should check your urine for ketones. The symptoms of diabetic ketoacidosis usually come on gradually, over a period of hours or days, and include a drowsy feeling, flushed face, thirst and loss of appetite. Notify your physician right away if the urine test is positive for ketones (acetone) or if you have any of these symptoms. Fast, heavy breathing and rapid pulse are more severe symptoms and you should have medical attention right away. Severe, sustained hyperglycemia may result in diabetic coma and death.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
A few people with diabetes develop red, swollen and itchy skin where the insulin has been injected. This is called a "local reaction" and it may occur if the injection is not properly made, if the skin is sensitive to the cleansing solution, or if you are allergic to the insulin being used. If you have a local reaction, tell your physician.
Generalized insulin allergy occurs rarely, but when it does it may cause a serious reaction, including skin rash over the body, shortness of breath, fast pulse, sweating, and a drop in blood pressure. If any of these symptoms develop, you should seek emergency medical care.
If severe allergic reactions to insulin have occurred (i.e., generalized rash, swelling or breathing difficulties) you should be skin-tested with each new insulin preparation before it is used.
IMPORTANT NOTES
1. A change in the type, strength, species or purity of insulin could require a dosage adjustment. Any change in insulin should be made under medical supervision.
2. To avoid possible transmission of disease, PenFill cartridge should not be shared.

3. Before use, check that the PenFill cartridge is intact (e.g. no cracks). Do not use if any damage is visible, or if the part of the rubber piston that you see is wider than the white bar code band.
4. You may have learned how to test your urine or your blood for glucose. It is important to do these tests regularly and to record the results for review with your physician or nurse educator.
5. If you have an acute illness, especially with vomiting or fever, continue taking your insulin. If possible, stay on your regular diet. If you have trouble eating, drink fruit juices, regular soft drinks, or clear soups; if you can, eat small amounts of bland foods. Test your urine for glucose and ketones and, if possible, test your blood glucose. Note the results and contact your physician for possible insulin dose adjustment. If you have severe and prolonged vomiting, seek emergency medical care.
6. You should always carry identification which states that you have diabetes.
7. Always ask your physician or pharmacist before taking any drug.
8. Do not try to refill a PenFill cartridge.
Always consult your physician if you have any questions about your condition or the use of insulin.
