BD Ultra-Fine Pen Insulin Needles 4mm x 32G (0.23mm) – 100 Pack
BD Ultra-Fine 4mm pen needles are designed for comfortable, consistent subcutaneous delivery with insulin and other pen-injectable medications. The 32G (0.23 mm) ultra-thin wall and short 4 mm length help minimise injection discomfort and reduce the risk of intramuscular injection across a wide range of body types when used with the technique recommended by your healthcare professional. Each needle is sterile, single-use, and engineered with a multi-facet tip and micro-bonded lubrication for smooth insertion. The universal screw-thread hub fits most diabetes injection pens, and the value 100-pack supports everyday therapy with a fresh needle for every dose.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Will these fit my insulin pen?
A: The screw-thread hub is designed to fit most leading insulin pens. If you’re unsure, bring your pen or ask your pharmacist to confirm compatibility.
Q: Why use a 4 mm needle?
A: Short needles help promote subcutaneous delivery and can reduce the risk of intramuscular injection when used correctly. Your clinician will advise on the best length and technique for you.
Q: Do I really need a new needle for every injection?
A: Yes. Single-use only. Reusing dulls the tip, increases pain, can damage tissue, and raises infection risk.
Q: What injection angle should I use?
A: Many adults use 90° with a 4 mm needle, with or without a skinfold depending on individual factors. Follow the technique taught by your healthcare professional.
Q: How do I dispose of used needles?
A: Place immediately into an approved sharps container. Follow local regulations for return or disposal programs.
Q: Can these be used for non-insulin pens (e.g., GLP-1s)?
A: Many non-insulin injectable pens use the same style of pen needle. Confirm compatibility with your prescriber or pharmacist.
Q: Any tips to reduce pain or leaks?
A: Use a fresh needle each time, prime per your pen’s instructions, inject at the recommended angle, count before removing the needle, and rotate sites to avoid lipohypertrophy.
Q: Are they latex-free?
A: Yes, patient-contacting components are latex-free.
Q: Storage?
A: Keep in the original packaging, dry, at room temperature, and do not use past expiry.
