Pen needles being removed from Amazon
-
Hi, where can I find a beginner-friendly reusable pen that comes with cartridges and needles—like a starter kit?
-
I have Novafine coming today. I have 2 boxes of Glucacare that I was sending back, because they are 4mm instead of 6mm. Maybe I should keep them, in case of emergency.

Do you find the 6mm better? I never got into the world of pens yet. Was recently giving them a look and possibly trying them out.

I don’t know, because I haven’t used them yet!
. I’m taking the word of several people on here. I did find the 5MM better than the 4mm. I have a full box of the 5mm and now the 6mm that just came in today! -
@chuxpeps I absolutely love the flat tips. The ones with the nubs are kinda dumb and pointless. Just push the tip against your rat’s skin and press the button.
I know the regular ones are not a huge deal but to me it simplifies the whole thing just enough. “Is it all the way in?” Yup. Do I have to worry about holding it in place? Not really.

As for 4mm vs 6mm, I don’t think it makes a huge difference, but I find I prefer the 4mm, the depth is fine and I get fewer bruises and hit capillaries. It’s a very small difference.
I do find it interesting that I really don’t like the 31g 5mm, but the 32g 4/6 are great.

In all honesty if the 4mm did work for you without any major hiccups, given everything going on I would absolutely keep them just in case. I think most of these ancillaries have a 5 year shelf life.

I noticed glucocare pen needles drying up a couple of weeks ago on Amazon and now they're not just out of stock. They're just no longer available in order history.
They still have the Novofine stuff and they actually have a lot of it via prime which is great but those cost 3x what gluco care does.
It's going to get a little less convenient, but luckily these products aren't like bacwater.
@Randy Is there a certain one you are looking for. I see them on Amazon right now. In particular, this one:
-
Keep an eye on facebook marketplace. I just paid a total of $40 for five boxes of Novofine and three boxes of BD Ultra Fine.

@Foodstampede Yeah definitely. I had to message the seller to confirm it was for all the boxes. This might've been the first time on marketplace I didn't try to negotiate for a lower price lol.
-
@ctrain24 that sounds like one of those times where you just want to get out the door before they realize the mistake. That is an insane deal!
-
Just following up on this; there are definitely shenanigans afoot. The pen needles I ordered have been delayed, and the link to the product is a dead link now. But there is a different gauge and length available.
Odd stuff going on.

I’ll also add that you’ll still find syringes or tips (for syringe and pens) will still be listed. There’s a dozen states that limit quantity of all in one delivery devices. The seller work around is smaller quantities packaged, that’s what you’ll find listings for 10 and 50. Pen tips do not have the same restrictions as insulin syringes, unless they are licensed for human medical use.

@ResearchCat, thanks for the real-world feedback. Now to stock up grabs wallet
