Pagina afdrukkenHow do I throw away my needles?
Put your used needles in a FDA-cleared sharps disposal container right away after use. Do not throw away (dispose of)
loose needles and syringes in your household trash. If you do not have a FDA-cleared sharps disposal container, you may
use a household container that is:
•
Made of a heavy-duty plastic,
•
Can be closed with a tight-fitting, puncture-resistant lid, without sharps being able to come out,
•
Upright and stable during use,
•
Leak-resistant, and
•
Properly labeled to warn of hazardous waste inside the container.
When your sharps disposal container is almost full, you will need to follow your community guidelines for the right way
to dispose of your sharps disposal container. There may be state or local laws about how you should throw away used
needles and syringes.
Do not share your BYETTA Pen with other people, even if the needle has been changed. You may give other
people a serious infection or get a serious infection from them.
STORING YOUR BYETTA PEN
How do I store my BYETTA Pen?
•
Prior to first use, store your unused BYETTA Pen in the original carton in a refrigerator at 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C).
•
After first use, your BYETTA Pen can be kept at a temperature cooler than 77°F (25°C).
•
Do not freeze your BYETTA Pen. Do not use BYETTA if it has been frozen. BYETTA should be protected from light.
•
When carrying the pen away from home, store the pen at a temperature between 36°F to 77°F (2°C to 25°C) and
keep dry.
•
Do not store the pen with the needle attached. If the needle is left on the pen, BYETTA may leak from the pen and
air bubbles may form in the cartridge.
Keep your pen and needles out of the reach of children.
How long can I use a BYETTA Pen?

You can use your BYETTA Pen for up to 30 days after setting up a new pen for first use. After 30 days, throw away
the BYETTA Pen in a FDA-cleared sharps disposal container, even if it is not completely empty.
•
Mark the date when you first used your pen and the date 30 days later in the spaces below:
Date of First Use ________________________________

BYETTA should not be used after the expiration date printed on the pen label.
How do I clean my BYETTA Pen?
