  • @heatherwilde6521

    This video doesnt mention that once the needle is pushed onto the pen you need to twist it on till it's tight. I failed to do this so the pen wouldnt inject the dose. I had to stick the needle in twice and then read the instructions instead, ater I twisted the needle tight it worked fine. But an important step to miss out.

    Why can I never use the fourth dose? The pen always seems to jam & the end will not unscrew. I just threw the first pen out after losing the will to live but the same thing has happened with my second a Mounjaro pen. I cannot afford to lose 25% of each pen & I have definitely only used three doses from the pen so it is not priming fluid. It seems cheaply made compared to other pens. Can I return the pen with the fourth dose still stuck inside it to the manufacturer to check out what the problem is? Otherwise I will just have to go back to using a Ozempic or Wegovy

    A well presented tutorial on how to inject this drug, but why the camera vision of the presenter from the side talking to the camera in front? I've never understood how this technique improves or adds to the presentation. To me it just looks dumb. Maybe it's the director saying "sure, the presenter and the item being demonstrated are great, but it's only that way because of me, and don't forget that!"

    Don't use. Use a different company/type of pen. The pen is at fault and doesn't deliver 4 full doses per month. You end up paying full price for only 3 doses each month. And they keep making excuses/blaming you and only refunding a small proportion of what you've missed. I lost about £150 over 4 months.
