Questions & Answers

I'm not sure if the Trulicity auto injectors will work in this one. I came across two trulicity reviews. One person claims they are compatible, while the other claims they are not?

I believe it will fit based on the dimensions. If it doesn't, simply let us know and we'll give you a full refund and the container is yours to keep. We also have a 3 gallon size that will fit the trulicity pen through the opening perfectly. Simply type B00K0TS7H4 into Amazon's search bar.

Is there a way to unlock it if it has been locked by accident?

Pry up the clips on either side of the top where it locks with a small screwdriver, then pull the door down.

Trulicity pens come in a good size
5/5

This was purchased specifically for my Trulicty pens that were no longer in working order. I expect to fill the container without wasting dead space like I did with my previous sharps container because it is wider than the pens without being too wide.

Fitting a used insulin pump and CGM supplies into the opening is difficult
3/5

Any diabetic who uses an insulin pump or a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) should follow these guidelines: The sensor applicators for the Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitor, as well as the Tandem t: AutoSoft XC infusion set, do not fit in the opening of this specific sharps container. insulin pump slim X2. Every time, I have to use a lot of elbow grease to get both of them in, and I'm worried that this will crack my container before it's full and needs to be disposed of medically. It's a problem because it defeats the purpose of a sharps container, which is to keep people safe. When I first ordered it, the opening in this sharps container appeared to be large enough to accommodate both of these items as well as the dimensions listed by the seller, but that was not the case. If you use either of the products I mentioned, I recommend getting a container with a much larger opening.

It has a lot of storage space and is simple to operate
5/5

I purchased this because I was tired of ordering smaller containers and having to dispose of them quickly once they were full. This one already has a light in it, and I still have a few more to add before it's full. The only disadvantage is that if you have a lupron pen, you will only be able to use the screw-on needles. Then there's the hassle of taking them off and putting them back on. They have a round spot on the smaller containers where you can put the pen and twist the needle tip off. However, I usually use syringes and will purchase this one again if I need one.

It's extremely simple to open
5/5

Self- inject B- I needed a large capacity, easy-to-use box because I had 12 allergy and migraine meds. This is ideal because the opening is large enough for auto-closing to work. Inject pens fit into my other syringes like a glove. br>br>It's exactly like the ones you see at the doctor's office, and it's the easiest I've ever had.

Container is in good condition and is a good size
5/5

This Sharps container holds 5 quarts of sharps and is in excellent condition. constructed and dependable I was worried it might tip over, but it's sitting on thick carpet in my closet. The lid snaps securely in place, and I expect it to lock securely when it's full. br> This container's dimensions are ideal for me. The pre- auto-humira auto-humira auto-humira auto-humir The injectors I use are quite large. They'll easily fit through the mailbox slot, and I'll be able to stuff a lot of them in there! br> For travel-related reasons, I only gave it three stars. Because of its size, this container would take up far too much room. I don't travel, so it's not a problem for me. br> In general, I am pleased with my purchase.

MUCH EASIER TO WORK WITH - IT ALSO ACCEPTS USED PENCILS
5/5

It's incredibly simple to use and incredibly durable. On my previous Sharps container, it was difficult to push in the used pens. This one is simple, holds a lot more, and comes with a long trap-door. door- such as a door that accepts everything from used syringes to the entire pen when it runs out. Simply place any item on the wide back shelf, and it will tilt, causing the item(s) to fall into the pit of misery. When it's finally full, press down on two pre-installed tabs on the top, and it locks just like any other Sharps container I've ever used. Naturally, I'll never buy another one of those obsolete models. I'll order another one when this one fills up in 2020 (I'm not kidding). Dilly, Dilly, Dilly, Dilly, Dilly, Dilly, Di.

It's a good size and it's simple to operate
5/5

This is an excellent sharps container for use in the home. It is extremely simple to operate. It returns to its original position to place the syringe in the bucket. After you've put them in, there's no way to remove them. When it's all filled up, it also appears to be fairly simple to secure. The second image is of me before I started working on the project. filled syringes that are quite large and fit perfectly.

PENS FOR INJECTION WORKS WELL
5/5

Repatha is a cholesterol medication that I take in the form of an injection pen. Some sharps containers are difficult to use with them due to the length of those pens. This is a fantastic idea. Because it does not completely close, it must be kept out of the reach of children and pets. However, injector pens benefit from it.
