Description
Ypsomed Mylife Penfine Classic Needles are designed for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. These needles are intended to deliver insulin into the fatty tissue just beneath the skin, and their short 6 mm length helps reduce the likelihood of injecting into the underlying muscle, which can affect blood glucose levels. The design focuses on providing a comfortable and straightforward injection experience for individuals managing diabetes.
Universal Twist Fit: Features a universal twist mechanism that allows the needle to be securely attached to all major brands of insulin injection pens. Extra Thin Wall Cannula: The needle is designed with an extra thin wall, which facilitates an optimised flow of medication with less force required. Silicone-Coated Surface: A special silicone surface treatment is applied to the needle to enable smooth skin penetration and enhance injection comfort. Precision 3-Bevel Tip: The needle tip has a 3-bevel cut, which is designed for a gentle and smooth entry into the skin. Color-Coded Identification: The packaging uses color-coding to help users simply identify different pen needle lengths for accurate use.

A: Yes, the mylife Penfine Classic needles feature a universal twist design that is compatible with all major injection pen brands, ensuring a secure fit.
Q: What do the '32G' and '6mm' specifications mean?
A: The '32G' refers to the gauge or thickness of the needle, with a higher number indicating a finer needle. The '6mm' refers to the length of the needle. This short length helps in administering the injection into the fatty tissue rather than the muscle.

Q: What is the purpose of the silicone coating on the needle?
A: The special silicone surface treatment allows for a smoother penetration and gliding characteristic, which contributes to a more comfortable injection experience.
Q: Who should use these pen needles?
A: These needles are intended for individuals who need to inject insulin as part of their diabetes management. However, it is always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the appropriate needle size and injection technique for your specific needs.
