bIn a study, 94 people used the Norditropin® FlexPro® 30 mg pen to inject into a foam cushion, and rated it a 6.7 out of 7 (on a scale of 1 to 7, where 1 means “strongly disagree” and 7 means “strongly agree”), as “easy to learn to use.”
Another great thing about FlexPro®? The needles are designed to minimize pain.
PenMate® is a reusable cover for the FlexPro® 5 mg, 10 mg, and 15 mg pens.c Once you attach it to the end of your pen, it completely covers the needle so you don’t see it go into your skin during injection. PenMate® also has a large gripping surface so you can hold it firmly in your hands.
To order your PenMate®, contact your NovoCare® Case Manager or call 1-888-668-6444.
cPenMate® cannot be used with FlexPro® 30 mg pens.
