HumaPen® MEMOIR™ Glossary
Insulin
A hormone produced in the pancreas by beta cells, which is necessary for glucose (blood sugar) to be able to enter certain cells of the body and be used for energy. Glossary
Dose
The amount of a medicine to be taken within a given period. HumaPen MEMOIR is the first and only insulin pen with a memory. HumaPen MEMOIR records the date, time, and amount of your last 16 doses (including priming doses). You can see exactly when and how much insulin you last took. With HumaPen MEMOIR, you simply "dial" your dose by turning the dose knob in one-unit increments (up to 60 units) after initial set-up. If you dial too many units, you can correct the dose without wasting any insulin. HumaPen MEMOIR is a reusable pen for use only with Humalog (insulin lispro injection [rDNA origin]) 3 mL insulin cartridges.
'Push to Know'
Say you got busy and can't remember if you took your insulin at lunch. Perhaps you want to see how much insulin you last injected? Or perhaps you want to record this information later in your logbook? With HumaPen MEMOIR, it's as easy as 'push to know.' You simply push the dose knob to see your last 16 doses, including priming doses.
HumaPen MEMOIR offers many of the same useful features as the Prefilled Pen. It is simple to dial up and back, has audible clicks, and a short thumb reach at high doses. HumaPen MEMOIR is easy to load with Humalog 3mL cartridges, easy to dose, and easy to learn and use for experienced pen users.
