How to use
Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor has told you.
Use Insulin detemir once each day, preferably at the same time every day.
Insulin detemir is for injection under the skin (subcutaneously). You must never inject yourself directly into a vein (intravenously) or muscle (intramuscularly).
With each injection, change the injection site within the particular area of skin that you use. This may reduce the risk of developing lumps or skin pitting.
The best places to give yourself an injection are: the front of your waist (abdomen), the upper arm or the front of your thighs.
