Sudden supply outages for products that deliver life-saving drugs are cause for concern due to the potential impact on adherence to therapy. Supply disruptions also negatively impact patient routines where reuse of pen needles often increases, causing other health concerns. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Droplet\u2122 brand team is dedicated to helping patients achieve their best health and outcomes. During this period, we want to offer you and your patients an alternative to the brand experiencing supply disruptions. The Droplet and DropSafe\u2122 line of pen needles have excellent reimbursement coverage which will make it easy for your patients to access Droplet and DropSafe products.&nbsp; As the second largest worldwide manufacturer of pen needles, Droplet and DropSafe products have a long history of quality and reliable supply which has helped make it the fastest growing brand in North America over the past few years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, Droplet Micron 34G x 3.5mm is the shortest and thinnest pen needle, ever.
