One-time use.
FlexPro® pens use disposable needles that twist on and off of the pen and should be discarded after each use. Some kids like to attach the needle themselves, even if they are not ready to self-inject.

Don't like needles?
We have 2 options for patients who prefer not to see the needle.
PenMate®
PenMate® is a reusable cover for the FlexPro® pen, created for people who prefer not to see the needle on their pens.b An option designed exclusively for use with FlexPro® 5 mg, 10 mg, and 15 mg pens, PenMate® has a large gripping surface so you can hold it firmly in your hands. Once it’s attached to the FlexPro® pen, it completely covers the needle—you won’t see the needle during injection because the insertion button inserts the needle into the skin for you.
bPenMate® can’t be used with the Norditropin® FlexPro® 30 mg pen or with NovoFine® Autocover®.


Autocover®
NovoFine® Autocover® needles have a shield that hides the needle before, during, and after the injection. The shield covers the needle, retracts during growth hormone injection, and then covers the needle again. Because it "locks" after use, it may also reduce the risk of accidentally sticking yourself with the needle after you’ve used it. Autocover® can be used with all Norditropin® FlexPro® pens.
