Hi,

I am about to change from Levimir to Tresiba.. Does Tresiba only come as a pre filled pen? That's what I received from the chemist.. phoned my doctors to ask and they are less than useless.. *sigh*

Thanks in advance..

You can get the cartridges - you just have to say that's what you want. My go also gave me the pre filled pens but they only come as whole unit delivery and I needed 1/2 unit delivery.
I have a novo nordisk echo in a contrasting colour to my novorapid one.

People that can't listen to other people's opinions.
People that can't say sorry.
Make sure you have the right pens for the cartridges though... the novo pens..
