[QUOTE="UK T1, post: 2357797, member: 503751"] Haha until the novopen echo came out I had a very 'jazzy' children's pen which did 0.5 units but was not quite what I would have chosen especially through uni and after! [emoji1787] Ask your diabetes team, they often have spare pens at their surgeries, otherwise they can tell your GP to arrange a prescription. There are half unit pens, yes, and luckily not only in children's designs! Which you can get will depend on your insulin. I use novonordisk insulins and the novopen echo which does 1/2 units and tells you how many units you injected, and how many hours ago (rounded to the nearest hour). Others are available if you use different insulin. I then get the cartridges on prescription. Hope that helps! [/QUOTE]
