Novo Nordisk has announced the launch of a new insulin pen called NovoPen Echo®. The insulin pen is designed for children and comes in two different colours: red and blue.
NovoPen Echo® comes with a unique feature which means it has a memory function which allows the time of the last insulin dose to be recorded; the pen also allows half doses to be given.
I think the time memory function is a great idea and not just for children with diabetes. Taking insulin is such a routine thing I sometimes struggle to remember if I've taken it before a meal especially if I've been distracted so this pen may be a good option for adults too and this is something I'll ask about when I go for a check-up.
Commenting in a press release, Viggo Birch, Managing Director for Novo Nordisk Limited, said:
"Novo Nordisk is committed to continually improving our diabetes medicines and devices that can help solve some of the major challenges people with diabetes face every day. We are very proud to make NovoPen Echo® available to children living with diabetes in the UK, as it is designed to benefit both them and their parents, ensuring that they control their diabetes with minimal worry and interference in their lives."
