Levemir® FlexPen®


Helping you control blood sugar day and night

Levemir® is a long-acting insulin taken once or twice a day to help control your blood sugar between meals and while you’re sleeping. Levemir® can be used alone or in combination with diabetes pills or rapid-acting insulin therapy.

Levemir® insulin therapy can be taken with the Levemir® FlexPen®, a discreet, prefilled, dial-a-dose pen. It is about the size of a fountain pen, fitting neatly in your pocket or purse. Once in use, the Levemir® FlexPen® works for up to 42 days without refrigeration (below 86ºF), so you can store your Levemir® FlexPen® in your medicine cabinet or bedside table.

Levemir® FlexPen®: proven to reduce A1C

Levemir® FlexPen® has been proven to help reduce A1C levels and reduce the amount of sugar in your blood. People taking Levemir® who were previously taking another long-acting insulin had a low rate of low blood sugar, also known as hypoglycemia.
