The Humulin 70/ 30 Pen is available in boxes of 5 disposable insulin delivery devices (" insulin pens"). The Humulin 70/ 30 Pen is not designed to allow any other insulin to be mixed in its cartridge, or for the cartridge to be removed. Always examine the appearance of Humulin 70/ 30 suspension in the insulin pen before administering a dose. A cartridge of Humulin 70/ 30 contains a small glass bead to assist in mixing. Humulin 70/ 30 Pen must be rolled between the palms 10 times and inverted 180° 10 times before each injection so that the contents are uniformly mixed (see Figures 1 and 2). Inspect the Humulin 70/ 30 suspension for uniform mixing and repeat the above steps as necessary. Figure 1. Figure 2. Humulin 70/ 30 should look uniformly cloudy or milky after mixing. Do not use if the insulin substance (the white material) remains visibly separated from the liquid after mixing. Do not use the Humulin 70/ 30 Pen if there are clumps in the insulin after mixing. Do not use the Humulin 70/ 30 Pen if solid white particles stick to the walls of the cartridge, giving it a frosted appearance. Always check the appearance of the Humulin 70/ 30 suspension in the insulin pen before using, and if you note anything unusual in the appearance of Humulin 70/ 30 suspension or notice your insulin requirements changing markedly, consult your doctor.
