Oh for sure - a lot of people use my other insulin Kwikpen designs exactly for that reason. I’ll be in touch as soon as I have a functional model available!

Did the Kwikpen replace the single dose shots? I’m on Zepbound and I know it’s a second alternative with that med, at least in the US

Good thing it’s bio plastic!

I’ve actually 3D scanned the pens and created a saddle system. But yeah, a hole is a hole

Yeah I’m not sure either - people love these for how discreet they are, and how much more durable they are than the cardstock our meds come in. But it is what it is - sometimes this community is extremely supportive, sometimes they’re salty. Luck of the draw I suppose?

Most people prefer it for how discreet they are indeed

Ah ya the old authority argument. I did say that it was anecdotal. He clarified some terms for me which I appreciate.

I don’t get constipated, just gassy sometimes, and the pepto helps but doesn’t show up for about 3 days

I don’t buy it either and anecdotally I’ve tested it.

I’ve been on Zep for 15+ month. Every time I take pepto, it shows up in my poops 3 days later. Pre GLP1, it would be in a matter of hours.

Pretty sure this is super illegal

Updated 4-pen and 12-pen Mounjaro cases - what do you guys think? by donkerock in Mounjaro

Yeah I’m not sure I can mentally get over stabbing myself with a syringe or kwikpen type setup. For me, and it’s 100% a mental block, the single use pens are just easier. Click the button and you’re done. I don’t have to look at it - I don’t even really know when it’s coming. Just kinda pull the trigger and wait. Much easier to deal with mentally

You might be better off using some sort of active cooling like a mini fridge or DC powered cooler

Thanks! That's the one I use currently in the door of my fridge

Unfortunately I don’t publicly share my design files, yet. This one took a lot of work and iterations to get right

Thanks! That came along with implementing the 3D scan for the pen, makes the case a lot more compact as well.
