Ooooh - Ypsomed!! Very old established company, been 'in the game' a long time - though I freely admit I've only ever used their pen needles when the first Lantus pens only accepted 'click on' needles and BD didn't make them so I couldn't use the BD I already had for my Novorapid pen. Wonderfully kind needles!
Did me a huge favour too, that, since before then all jabs of either stung like hell - until I subsequently analysed this and found the Lantus stung pdq after depressing the plunger but sticking the needle in me, didn't. The Novorapid stung as soon as my skin was pierced but not any further than already when the plunger was depressed, and didn't stop until the needle was removed - so that was the needle's fault not the insulin. First I changed the needles and that was lovely, then I swapped to Levemir on the basis that nobody on a the internet then thought it stung and what the hell would be a prob with only one more jab a day, if it wasn't going to actually hurt you to deliver it, and I might achieve better overall control anyway?
Oh what blessed relief!! 🙂
