Age Restrictions for Glucorx Carepoint Insulin Pen Needles
While GlucoRx needles are suitable for all ages, we recommend that parents monitor children while using them.
How to Use GlucoRX Finepoint Insulin Pen Needles?
When using the needles, please follow these instructions:
- Prepare: Wash your hands thoroughly and check that the medication in your pen is correct. Use an alcohol wipe or swap to clean the pen's rubber seal.
- Attach the Needle: Take a new Finepoint needle and remove the paper tab. Place it onto the pen and twist clockwise. Never push the needle on at an angle, as it can bend. Remove the protective rubber gap and needle shield.
- Prime: Follow the instructions on your pen to prime it and avoid air bubbles. If a drop of insulin doesn't appear at the tip, you should reprime until it does.
- Dosage: Turn the mechanism on the pen to select your desired dosage.
- Inject: Insert the needle at a 90-degree angle. The Finepoint needles are for 3- or 5-bevel tips, so they usually require minimal effort.
When to Avoid Using GlucoRx Finepoint Insulin Pen Needles?
If any of the following apply, please avoid using GlucoRx finepoint needles:
- Past Expiry Date: If the needle is past its expiry date, you should avoid using it, as it can increase the risk of infection.
- Broken Seals: You'll notice that each finepoint needle has a paper tab. This is the protective seal and confirms that the needle is sterile. If the seal looks disturbed or broken, throw the needle away.
- Compatibility: GlucoRx needles are universally compatible with most pen injectors, but there may be some exceptions. If the needle won't screw onto your pen correctly, don't push it.
Precautions for Glucorx Carepoint Insulin Pen Needles:
- Don't Reuse Needles: GlucoRx is single-use only. Once you've used a needle, please dispose of it and use a new needle for your next dose.
- Discard Bent Needles: If the needle is bent, throw it away immediately. Using it could cause the needle to break off in the skin.
- Never Share: This is mostly common sense, but you should never share needles.

Side Effects of Glucorx Carepoint Insulin Pen Needles
Occasionally, CarePoint GlucoRx CarePoint Insulin Pen Needles may pierce a small blood vessel, meaning several are visible during the injection. You can prevent this by using a cotton ball and gently applying pressure at the injection site, but be careful not to rub to avoid bruising.
Should a bruise occur, avoid using CarePoint GlucoRx Insulin Pen Needles on the exact spot again - let the bruise fade before trying again. If you've experienced bleeding before, speak to a healthcare specialist who can advise you on how to perform injections correctly and whether you may be suffering from another medical issue.
If any leaking occurs after using CarePoint GlucoRx Carepoint Insulin Pen Needles, it may be because the needle wasn't beneath the skin long enough – in which case, count to 10 gradually before removing the needle. You may experience a little leakage once you've removed the needle.
Ensure you use the skin-fold method, which allows you to release the pinch before withdrawing the CarePoint Glucorx Insulin Pen Needles from the skin.
During CarePoint Glucorx Insulin Pen Needles injections, you may suffer from skin issues where the injection was given because of shifts in the fatty tissue:
- Lipoatrophy: losing fat beneath the skin, so it hardly ever happens with impure insulin.
- Lipohypertrophy: looks like smooth, grape-like bumps beneath the skin due to needle reuse or insulin reaction. Alternate injection spots to stop this from happening.
Avoid using CarePoint Insulin Pen Needles on bumps, as insulin can't be absorbed effectively there. Remember to schedule your insulin injections, as this can affect your overall health and glucose levels.
