What is Novolog FlexTouch Pen?

Novolog FlexTouch (insulin aspart) is a prescription medication that is classified as a fast-acting insulin.

What is Novolog used for? 

It is used for the treatment of type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

How does it work?

It increases cellular uptake of glucose and inhibits hepatic glucose production. It is formulated with aspartic acid substitution which decreases the tendency for hexamers to form which causes it to have a faster absorption and onset of action but also causes it to have a shorter duration of action.

How do I use my Novolog FlexTouch?

Novolog is a fast-acting insulin, which means you will administer this medication with regards to your meals. 

Steps:

Before administering your Novolog, you must wash your hands with water and soap. Check the label to ensure you are going to administer the correct insulin. The insulin should be clear and colorless

1. You will first remove the pen cap and clear the rubber stopper with alcohol. 
   1. You will then remove the protective tab from a new disposable needle and attach it onto your pen (tightly). The needle must be put on straight (important). Never place a disposable needle onto your pen until you are ready to administer the medication.
   2. Then, pull off the big outer needle cap.
   3. Remove the inner needle cap and dispose of it.
   4. You will then give an airshot prior to every injection to remove any air that may have collected in the cartridge. Turn the dose selector to 2 units. 
   5. Hold your Novolog FlexTouch with the needle pointing upwards. Gently tap the cartridge with your fingers to move any air bubbles to the top. 
   6. Press the push button all the way down/in, with the needle facing upwards. THe dose selector should return to 0. You should see insulin. If you do not see insulin, change the need and attempt the steps again.
2. To select your dose, make sure that the dose indicator is at “0”. You cannot select a dose that is larger than the number of doses left in your pen.

Inject subcutaneously into the thighs, abdomen, arms, or buttock. Injection sites should be rotated within the same region to prevent lipodystrophy or localized cutaneous amyloidosis from occurring. Do not inject into skin with lipodystrophy or localized cutaneous amyloidosis.

What dosages are available? 

Novolog FlexTouch is only available as a brand and generic pen-injector (100 units/mL; 3 mL pen).

What is the recommended dosage?

The specific dose differs based on patient needs, refer to your doctor for your dosage requirements.

What is the maximum dosage?

There is currently no maximum recommended daily dose.

What if I miss a dose?

A missed dose could result in hyperglycemia. Some symptoms include increased thirst, frequent urination, nausea, vomiting, or stomach pain. Check your blood sugar if you have missed a dose. If it has been roughly 30 minutes since the missed dose, administer the missed dose. Do not double doses. If it has been longer than 30 minutes, monitor your blood glucose levels and call your provider.

What should you know before you take Novolog FlexTouch Pen?

Hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia can occur when changing insulin strength.

Hypersensitivity reactions have occurred and can be serious and life-threatening. 

Weight gain can occur. 

Injection sites need to be rotated to prevent lipodystrophy (skin thickening or pits at injection site) from occurring.
