on the end of the needle.

After the injection the green
dot did not appear in the the
window displaying the end
of injection
Possible cause:

Clogged pen needle.
Possible
cause:
There was not enough
teriparatide in the cartridge
to inject the full set dose.

ELIMINATE:
Check if the cartridge was properly
installed. There should be no space
between the plunger and the cartridge.
Replace the needle with a new one.

corresponds
to
the

the injection. Attach the outer needle shield and
remove the needle. Replace the old cartridge with
a new one, accordingly to Section 7. Prepare
the pen injector to use accordingly to the
actions described in steps 7 to 10. Perform
the
priming
