• To ensure the correct administration of Movymia^® always read the instructions for use of Movymia^® Pen, which is included in the carton of the pen.
• Wash your hands before handling the cartridge or pen.
• Check the expiry date on the cartridge label before inserting the cartridge into the pen. Make sure that there are at least 28 days remaining before its expiry date. Insert the cartridge into the pen before the first use as detailed in the pen instructions. Write down the batch (Lot) number of each cartridge and its first injection date on a calendar. The date of first injection should also be recorded on the outer carton of Movymia^® (see the provided space on the box: {First use:}).
• After inserting a new cartridge and before the first injection from this cartridge prime the pen according to the instructions which are provided. Do not prime again after the first dose.

• Before you inject Movymia^®, clean your skin where you intend to inject (thigh or abdomen) as instructed by your doctor.
• Gently hold a fold of cleansed skin and insert the needle straight into the skin. Press the push button and hold it pressed in until the dose indication has returned to the start position.
• After your injection, leave the needle in the skin for six seconds to make sure that you receive the whole dose.
• As soon as you have finished the injection, attach the outer needle protective cap on the pen needle and screw the cap anti-clockwise to remove the pen needle. This will keep the remaining Movymia^® sterile and prevent leaking from the pen. It will also stop air going back into the cartridge and the needle from clogging.
• Replace the cap on your pen. Leave the cartridge in the pen.

If, by mistake, you have used more Movymia^® than you should, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
