Sanofi-aventis Lantus SoloSTAR - Manual (Page 4)

1. Wipe the rubber seal on the pen body
with an alcohol swab.
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 firmly 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.
6
Follow these straightforward steps every
time you use the Lantus ® SoloStar ® pen.
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.
