Are you the same guy who had the 1.5ml cartridges? If yes, you have to use a the BD pen, I believe the only pen that holds 1.5ml cartrdiges is the BD mini. Humapen only holds 3ml cartridges, wont work properly with your cartridges. They are available in any retail pharmacy. I am from Canada though, maybe things are different where you are.

If they come in ampules then they have to be fitted in an insulin pen.

Well I just leart something new, never new what erudite meant until now.

I try not to interfere with the important stuff.....like dosing, when to inject etc.. cause I would never want to fuk with someones life and with insulin , it has to be soooo specific. But if you have any problems with the pen, how to use it or differences bw insulin types etc. then PM me, I'm happy to help.
