`
`Follow these straightforward steps every
`time you use the Lantus® SoloStar® pen.
`
`1. Wipe the rubber seal on the pen body
`with an alcohol swab.
`
`CHECK
`YOUR PEN.
`
` 1. Take off the pen cap.
`
`2. Look at the insulin in the reservoir. Lantus®
`is clear, so don’t use the Lantus® SoloStar®
`pen if the insulin is cloudy, colored, or has
`particles in it.
`
`2. Remove the protective seal from a new
`needle. The Lantus® SoloStar® pen works
`with Becton Dickinson (BD) Ultra-Fine™
`needles. Use a sterile new needle for
`each injection to prevent contamination
`and blocked needles.
`
`3. Line up the needle with the pen. Keep
`the needle straight as you screw it on.
`Make sure the needle is ! rmly attached.
`
`4. Take extra care: If you don’t keep the
`needle straight while you attach it, it can
`damage the rubber seal and cause leaks,
`or break the needle.

`
`STEP 3
`SELECT
`YOUR DOSE
`
` 1. After your safety test, make sure the dose
`window reads “0”.
`
`Choose an injection area
`
`2. Select your required dose. You can set
`doses from 1 to 80 units in steps of 1 unit.
`If you dial past your dose, you can dial
`back down. In this example, the selected
`dose is 30 units. Of course, your dose
`may be different.
`
`Pick an area of your body to inject: either
`the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm.
`
`Once you choose an area, clean the skin
`with rubbing alcohol.

`
`If you can’t dial to the dose you want, make
`sure you have enough insulin in the reservoir.
`The Lantus® SoloStar® pen prevents you from
`dialing past the number of units left in the
`pen. If there isn’t enough insulin for your
`full dose, you can either complete your dose
`from a new pen, or use a new pen for your
`full dose.

`
`
`STEP 5
`REMOVE THE
`NEEDLE
`
`Remove the needle after each injection and
`store the Lantus® SoloStar® pen without a
`needle attached. This will help prevent
`contamination, infection, air in the insulin
`reservoir, and insulin leaks.
`
` 1. Replace the outer needle cap.
`
`3. Dispose of the needle safely as instructed
`by your treating healthcare professional.
`
`4. Put the pen cap back on and store the pen
`until your next injection.

`
`
`CARE
`FOR YOUR
`LANTUS® SOLOSTAR®
`
`Once you use a pen:
`
`" Don’t refrigerate it.
`
`" You can continue to use it for up to 28 days.
`
`" Store it safely at room temperature but not
`higher than 86°F.
`
`Before you use the pens:
`
`" Keep them in the outer package and in the
`refrigerator.
`
`" Don’t let them freeze—this will damage the
`insulin. And don’t put them next to the freezer
`or near a freezer pack.
`
`" Don’t leave it anywhere it might overheat,
`such as a windowsill or a car parked in
`sunlight. And keep the pen away from
`sunlight as much as possible.
`
`" Take one out of the refrigerator and let it warm
`up to room temperature an hour or two before
`you use it. Cold insulin can be more painful
`to inject.
`
`" After 28 days, throw it away, even if it still
`has insulin in it.
`
`" Don’t use it after the expiration date printed
`on the label or carton.
`
`" Occasionally wipe it with a damp cloth to
`keep it clean.
`
`" Don’t run it under water or use any soap
`or solvents.
`
`Always keep at least one spare Lantus®
`SoloStar® pen in case your current one
`is lost or damaged.
