Welcome to this guide,
which sets out the correct use of the Movymia Pen.
The Movymia Pen is made up of the following parts:
pen cap, cartridge holder, housing,
flange, threaded rod, display window,
push botton and dosage knob.
The needle consists of the outer needle cap,
inner needle cap, the pen needle itself
and the peel foil.
The Movymia cartridge completes the unit.
We will now show you everything you need to know for your daily injections
step by step.
This pen has a cartridge inside
and has already been primed.
Wash your hands carefully with soap
to minimize the risk of infection.
Make sure you have ready your Movymia Pen with a cartridge inside,
a compatible pen needle,
and a puncture-resistant sharps disposal container for used needles.
We will now attach a new needle.
Please, note:
This procedure should be carried out every day
before each injection.
Start by pulling off the peel foil.
Now screw the needle clockwise onto the cartridge holder
making sure that the needle is attached correctly and firmly to the cartridge holder.
Remove and keep the outer needle cap,
then remove and discard the inner needle cap.
The pen is now ready for injection.
Set the fixed daily dose of 80 microliters by turning the dose knob clockwise
until it stops and cannot be rotated any further.
Make sure that the display shows an arrow sign
and is aligned with the indicator stripe.
During dose dialling, the pen will make an audible clicking sound
and you will feel some resistance.
Do not try to force the dose knob any further.
If the cartridge contains less then 80 microliters,
the dose knob cannot be turned clockwise to the arrow sign.
In this case remove the needle from the pen,
change the cartridge and proceed with priming
by following the pen preparation steps.
Select an appropriate injection site
and prepare the skin as recommended by your doctor.
Gently hold a skin fold on your abdomen or thigh
between your thumb and index finger
and insert the needle straight and gently into the skin.
Now press the button until the dose indication has returned to the start position.
Keep the needle in the skin a for further 6 seconds.
Pull the pen out slowly.
Check that the display is in the start position
to be sure that the full dose has been injected.
Let’s now remove the needle that has just been used.
Carefully put the outer needle cap back on the needle.
Unscrew the needle cap counterclockwise to remove the pen needle.
Dispose of it correctly.
Reattach the pen cap after each use,
and do not remove the cartridge before it is empty.
Importantly,
put the pen, with the cartridge inside, back into the refrigerator
at a temperature of between 2 and 8 °C,
immediately after use.
