Yes you can repose yourself if need be; however you always want to poke once keeping the needle in place until you cannot inject/push to inject anymore… wait 5 seconds then withdraw the needle. It should read “0” in the window. If it doesn’t then replace the needle and inject the remaining amount. You will not have to redial the pen.
I have a 900 pen, but use 300 dose. I didn't prime the pen on my first injection (although I did see a drop of liquid at the tip of the needle before injection). After the injection I noticed 2-3 drop of liquid at the tip of the needle, even though I held it in for 6seconds. Are those drops normal, or did I do it wrong & lost some of the medication dose at the end of the process?
Hello that is normal and is minuscule to the dosing. What you can try is (depending how hard you are pinching the area for injection) is release the pinch just prior to withdrawing the needle or not pinch the area so hard/taut during the injection. Good luck!
Tintin Sealey most people will let it sit for a few minutes before injecting, but it is up to you and how quickly you want to do the injection after taking it out of the fridge. I have known people to inject right away or wait a little while so it is at room temperature. Good Luck with your injection
Thank you so much. I have my first ever dose tonight and this was much more helpful than the other clinic tutorials!
I have my first injection today. How painful is it going to be?
Clear and useful information! Thanks for uploading this.
You actually put the needle on you.. that's very impressed .. Thank you very much.
Thanks for making this video - very helpful 🙏
Thx for the video..very good guide
What happens if you withdraw the needle before the full dose is injected, can you re-inject the remaining amount?

To see dripping is normal. There is overfill in the pen/cartridge to allow for this.
After the injection I waited a few seconds and removed the needle but some of the medication ran out of the puncture hole.

Alison Swenson thanks for your message. Glad you found the video helpful. Good luck on your journey!
Does it have to be in a room temperature before you injecting?
