Embecta Ultra-Fine 5 mm Needles, Box of 100

What are Micro-Fine Ultra 5 mm pen needles used for?

Micro-Fine Ultra 5 mm needles are designed to meet the needs of diabetic patients who use insulin pens to administer their insulin. These innovative needles combine precision, comfort, and safety to provide an easier and more comfortable injection experience.

One of the main advantages of these needles is their Pentapoint technology, which gives them an ultra-fine, five-bevel tip, allowing for a smoother insertion and reducing pain during skin penetration. This unique design reduces the pressure exerted on the skin, improving injection tolerance. Additionally, ParoiFine technology reduces injection resistance, facilitating insulin flow and shortening injection time.

With an optimal length of 5 mm, these needles effectively prevent accidental intramuscular injections, a key factor in reducing the risk of hypoglycemia. By ensuring thatinsulin is administered into the subcutaneous tissue, absorption and efficacy are optimized. Furthermore, this ideal length allows patients to avoid using a skin fold, thereby simplifying the administration technique and promoting better treatment adherence.

People suffering from stress or a fear of needles will find these needles to be a soothing solution. The needle’s thinness reduces the anxiety associated with the injection and makes the process virtually painless. This reduction in pain helps make daily insulin administration easier and less stressful. Adopting this technology therefore improves treatment adherence and enhances patient comfort.

In addition to providing a gentle and effective injection, these needles are compatible with most insulin pens, such as those from Novo (NovoPen, Innolet, Flexpen, Victoza), Lilly (Umuline Pen, Humapen Luxura, Humalog Kwikpen, Byetta pen), and Sanofi-Aventis (ClikStar, SoloStar, Optiset, OptiPen pro). They are also compatible with other diabetes treatment delivery devices.

Finally, the box of 100needles is an ideal package for ensuring a long-term supply, thereby reducing the hassle associated with frequently purchasing medical supplies. This guarantees you’ll have enough needles to strictly follow your treatment plan.

If you’re looking for even greater comfort, Micro-fine Pro 4 mm needles can be an excellent addition to your treatment.
