There is a strong trend for shorter and thinner pen needles.

Injections with ultra short pen needles (4 mm and 6 mm) provide reliable subcutaneous delivery of insulin, with less pain and reduced risk of intramuscular injection.

The thickness of the skin (epidermis and dermis) of adult patients is rarely > 3 mm 4.

Clinical studies of 4 mm pen needles show that there is no increase in insulin backflow compared with 8 mm pen needles 5,6,7.
