For parents and caregivers of children with diabetes, HumaPen LUXURA HD is a reusable insulin pen that doses in half-unit increments from 1 to 30 units. The design and features of HumaPen LUXURA HD enable parents, relatives, babysitters, school nurses, and other caregivers to deliver a precise dose. You simply "dial" the dose by turning the dose knob in half-unit increments (from 1 to 30 units). If you dial too many units, you can correct the dose without wasting any insulin. HumaPen LUXURA HD is for use only with Humalog 3 mL insulin cartridges.
