Step 1: Prior to Administration:
Step 2: Select the Injection Site and Prepare the Syringe
Prepare and clean two injection sites, one for each of the two injections. See Figure B.
The recommended subcutaneous injection sites include:
● The thigh
● Abdomen, except for a two-inch area right around the navel
● Outer area of upper arm
Clean the injection sites with alcohol wipes. Let the skin dry.
● Choose a different site each time you give an injection. If you want to use the same injection site, make sure it is not the same spot on the injection site you used for a previous injection.
● Do not inject into areas where the skin is tender, bruised, red, or hard. Avoid injecting into areas with scars or stretch marks.
Choose the first syringe. Pull the gray needle cap straight off and away from your body when you are ready to inject. See Figure C.
● Do not put the gray needle cap back onto the syringe.
Step 3: Inject EVENITY
Insert needle and inject all the liquid subcutaneously. Do not administer into muscle or blood vessel. See Figure D.
When done, gently lift the syringe off of the skin.
Step 4: Syringe and Needle Cap Disposal
Immediately dispose of the syringe and needle cap in the nearest sharps container.
Important: Repeat all steps with the second syringe to inject the full dose.
