[QUOTE="Buchhete, post: 2335629, member: 518375"] Hi all, I'm looking for an insulin syringe or a pen (which I can use with insulin from a vial) with a half unit scale. So far I was able to find a syringe for vets with half unit scale... it would be nice to find something for humans :D Also found Junior KwikPen which is for humalog only. It may be useful for me for corrections but not for most meals. Ideally it should work with something like InsulCheck / Timesulin or similliar (is anyone using these?) I think these are useful to avoid "double dosing". [B]Update[/B] Now found also Novopen Echo which apparently has 0.5u dosing and memory and is reusable. Can it be filled with an insuling from a vial (NovoLog PenFill Cartridges does not sound like this)? It would be ideal. [INDENT]NOVO NORDISK NOVOPEN ECHO Reusable INSULIN NovoLog PenFill Cartridges DOSE DELIVERY Half-unit increments, up to 30 units at a time TOTAL CAPACITY 300 units DETAILS Pen is red with optional decorative skins. Memory function shows units of last dose and hours since last injection.[/INDENT] My problem is I need to use it with Actrapid which is available only in vials I think. Best, [/QUOTE]
