Levemir FlexTouch Pens (100 Units/mL) 300 units of U-100 that are prefilled and ready to use. The pen injects insulin through a spring-loaded mechanism. A small amount of force is required to inject a dose through the push button because it does not extend.

This FlexTouch pen is an insulin pen that contains insulin detemir as its active ingredient.

Levemir is a solution for subcutaneous use. Insulin detemir is a long-acting recombinant human insulin analog. Levemir is produced by a process that includes expression of recombinant DNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae followed by chemical modification. Insulin detemir differs from human insulin in that the amino acid threonine in position B30 has been omitted, and a C14 fatty acid chain has been attached to the amino acid B29.
