Accuracy
The BD Nano™ 4mm Pen Needle helps to reduce the risk of injecting into your muscle compared to needles 6mm and longer. 3*
Comfort
The BD Nano™ 4mm Pen Needle can significantly help reduce pain during injection compared to larger and longer pen needles.4† The 5-bevel needle tip can bring a more comfortable and less painful injection. 5^
Confidence
The BD Nano™ 4mm Pen Needle has ultra-thin wall technology to increase the flow of insulin so less thumb pressure is needed to push the pen button—making it easier for you to give the injection and giving you confidence that you have received the full dose of insulin.6¥
Compatibility
BD Nano™ 4mm Pen Needles are compatible with widely used pen injection devices, so even if your regimen changes, you won’t have to change your choice of pen needle.6
Single Use
Use a new pen needle every time you inject. Pen needles are recommended to be used only once and are no longer sterile after that. There is an association between needle reuse and injection pain or bleeding.1
