FAQ
Is Injex for me?
Most people who need to take insulin or other injection therapies can
use Injex. Plus, using Injex in public is much more discreet than needle
injections. Injex is also a safer alternative to needles for healthcare
professionals administering subcutaneous injections in the hospital or
clinic.
How does Injex feel?
Most people who have switched from taking insulin with a needle find
Injex less painful, reporting only a slight sensation of pressure against
the skin. Injex eliminates much of the discomfort of needle injections - a
major benefit for anyone who needs to take insulin.
Can I mix different insulins?
Yes. You can mix insulin types with Injex just like you would with a needle
and syringe. Injex delivers all commonly used U-100 insulin types.
Does my health plan cover Injex?
Many health plans reimburse for Injex. Typically the Injex starter kit is covered
as a medical benefit and the disposable ampules and vial adapters may be covered
either under the medical or pharmacy benefit. To find out if your health plan
covers Injex, follow the step-by-step instructions in the Injex Insurance
Verification Guide or talk to your pharmacist. Some
health plans may require a Letter of Medical Necessity
