Novofine Autocover: a device for patients suffering from needle phobia (trypanophobia or fear of needles). Novofine Autocover is a single-use device where the needle is hidden and can not be seen before or after insulin injection. Whilst needle phobia should be addressed by psychological counselling, Novofine Autocover is helpful for sufferers in some (… or quite a few?) patients, including children.  It can be used ONLY with NovoNordisk’s devices (including Liraglutide pen and IDegLira).
