STORING YOUR BYETTA PEN
How do I store my Byetta pen?
Store in a refrigerator (2 ºC to 8 ºC).
Do not freeze. Throw away any Byetta pen that has been frozen.
Once in use, your Byetta pen should be kept below 25 ºC.
Replace the cap on the pen in order to protect from light.
Do not store the Byetta pen with the needle attached. If the needle is left on, medicine may leak
from the Byetta pen or air bubbles may form in the cartridge.
Keep your pen and needles out of the sight and reach of children.
How long can I use a Byetta pen?
Use a Byetta pen for only 30 days after setting up a new pen for first use.
Dispose of a used Byetta pen after 30 days, even if some medicine remains in the pen.
Mark the date when you first used your pen and the date 30 days later in the spaces below:
Date of first use
Date to throw away pen
Do not use Byetta after the expiry date, which is stated on the label and the carton after 'EXP'.
The expiry date refers to the last date of that month.
How do I clean my Byetta pen?
If needed, wipe the outside of the pen with a clean, damp cloth.
White particles may appear on the outside tip of the cartridge during normal use. You may
remove them with an alcohol wipe or alcohol swab.
Please see the accompanying Byetta Package Leaflet. For additional information, contact your
healthcare professional.
Section 2. GETTING STARTED
Read and follow the directions in this section only after you've read section 1-what you need to
know about your Byetta pen.
Set up your new pen just before you use it for the first time. Follow the New Pen Setup only once.
For routine use, do not repeat the New Pen Setup. If you do, you will run out of Byetta before 30
days of use.
