Product Description
What this product is and who it's for
BD AutoShield Duo is a safety-engineered insulin pen needle intended for people who use insulin or other subcutaneous medications delivered by pen injectors, and for clinics procuring pen needles in bulk. The REF on the box identifies this exact variant as the 30-gauge, 5 mm length in a 100-count box.
Specifications
- Needle gauge: 30G (0.30 mm).
- Needle length: 5 mm (3/16 in).
- Pack quantity: 100 sterile single-use pen needles per sealed retail box.
- Manufacturer reference: REF 329505 (box-printed product identifier).
- Safety feature: passive dual-ended automatic protective shields that cover both the patient (front) and pen (back) needle ends after use.
- Visual indicators: red indicator band on the patient end and an orange shield on the pen (cartridge) end to confirm activation of the safety mechanism.
What is included
- One factory-sealed retail box containing 100 individually packaged sterile pen needles.
- No insulin pen device, syringe, or other accessories are included unless explicitly listed by the seller.
Condition and packaging
- Product as shown is a factory-sealed retail box suitable for sale to clinics or individual users.
- Photographic evidence shows front-panel printing of REF 329505 and the size marking 0.30 mm (30G) × 5 mm.
Usage notes
- The 5 mm length is designed to allow straight-in subcutaneous injection without a skinfold/pinch for many adults; some very thin adults and children may require a different length or a pinch-up technique.
- Use a new sterile needle for each injection and dispose of used needles in an appropriate sharps container.
Limitations and cautions
- Compatibility: the device is described by the manufacturer as compatible with widely used pen injectors, but users must check fit on their specific pen model before assuming interchangeability.
- Prescription/regulatory: some suppliers list the product as 'Rx only' or may verify a prescription or professional account before sale; local regulations and seller policies vary.
Warnings
- Do not use a needle if the individual sterile packaging or the outer retail box is opened or damaged.
- If you need prescription status confirmed for your jurisdiction or purchasing channel, verify with the seller before ordering (policies differ by supplier).
