Hello,all
I have been a type 1 diabetic for 46 years now and am doing well.Have tried to keep up to date with all the new developments and have now got a Novo pen 6.
I believed that my Humalog cardridges would fit but no.Just got a new supply of 10 cardridges which I want to obviously use up.I am all keen to start using the Novo 6 but will then have to change to another fast acting Insulin.Shall be talking to the doctor but would like to have some input from from all you people out there...thanks in advance
 
Unfortunately, insulin manufacturers maintain market share by having vendor specific pens and cartridges so they are no interchangeable.
Only NovoNordisk insulin can use NovoPens.

This includes NovoRapid, Fiasp, Levemir and Tresiba insulins.
