How do I use Gvoke HypoPen in an emergency?
Gvoke HypoPen is a ready-to-use glucagon injection for treating severe hypoglycemia when a person cannot swallow or is unconscious. The device delivers a fixed 0.5 mg or 1 mg dose subcutaneously in the lower abdomen or outer thigh.

Where should I inject?
Pinch the skin on the lower abdomen or outer thigh and insert the needle straight in at a 90-degree angle. The device works through clothing if needed, but bare skin is preferred for accuracy.

What does the device do once activated?
After removing the red cap, push the yellow end firmly against the skin until you hear a click. Hold for five seconds; the window turns red when the full dose has been delivered.

What should I do right after giving the shot?
Call 911 immediately. Turn the person on their side to prevent choking if vomiting occurs. Once conscious, give fast-acting carbohydrates such as glucose tablets or juice.

Can I reuse the device?
No. Gvoke HypoPen is single-use only and should be discarded after activation even if some liquid remains.

What if the person does not respond?
Continue monitoring breathing and pulse. Emergency responders can give intravenous glucose if the injection does not work.

How should I store it?
Keep the device at room temperature between 68 °F and 77 °F; do not refrigerate or freeze. Check the expiration date regularly and replace before it expires.
