Indications
Novopen 5 is an insulin injection device used to treat diabetes.

Dosage and Administration
The Novopen 5 device holds Penfill 3ml cartridges of insulin and can be used multiple times. Once you use all the insulin in a cartridge, you can replace it with a new one and continue using the injector pen.
