And now to the finer points.

With a thickness of just 0.2mm – and precision engineered to rigorous ISO 11608 standards, our 33G Insupen is the finest needle on the market1.

So, no big needle but also, no big price.

In fact, at just £2.49 per pack of 100, it’s the cheapest on the market2. It’s also on track to make the NHS over £10 million of needle subscriptions savings in 20223.

Insupen Original is available in 5 lengths and 5 gauges to match patient need. They are precision engineered to reduce friction points and have a wide internal diameter for efficient insulin administration. Insupen needles can also be used with any insulin pen type available in the UK.
