  • Ergonomic Design: The syringes are designed to be easy to handle, making self-administration or caregiver-assisted administration straightforward.

Mechanism of Action:

The Ulticare Insulin Syringes are designed to deliver insulin subcutaneously into the fatty tissue, allowing for gradual absorption into the bloodstream. This controlled release helps manage blood glucose levels effectively, mimicking the body's natural insulin response and aiding in the prevention of hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia.

Directions for Use:

  • 1. Preparation: Wash hands thoroughly before use. Ensure the syringe is sterile and the packaging is unopened.
  • 2. Filling the Syringe: Pull the plunger back to draw air into the syringe equal to the insulin dose. Insert the needle into the insulin vial and inject the air, then draw the required insulin dose into the syringe.
  • 3. Removing Air Bubbles: Gently tap the syringe to move air bubbles to the top, then push the plunger to remove any excess air.
  • 4. Injection: Clean the injection site with an alcohol swab. Pinch the skin gently and insert the needle at a slight angle. Administer the insulin by pressing the plunger steadily and slowly.
  • 5. Disposal: Dispose of the syringe in an approved sharps container to maintain safety and hygiene.

Warnings:

  • Single Use Only: Syringes are designed for single use. Reusing syringes can increase the risk of infection and dull the needle, causing more discomfort.
  • Proper Dosage: Always ensure the correct insulin dosage and type are used as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
  • Storage: Store syringes in a cool, dry place, avoiding direct sunlight or high heat to maintain their integrity.
  • Keep Out of Reach of Children: Ensure that syringes are stored safely to prevent accidental injury or misuse.
