by Nurun Nahar Eaty on Aug 18, 2025
If you use Repatha, Dupixent, or Enbrel Etanercept autoinjector pens, you know how tricky it can be to safely dispose of them while traveling, hiking, or just being out and about. Keep reading this article because you no longer have to worry about the safe disposal of your pen on the go—I have a great solution for you.
What are these autoinjector pens?
- Repatha (evolocumab) is a PCSK9 inhibitor given via SureClick® autoinjector every 2 weeks or monthly to lower LDL cholesterol and reduce cardiovascular risk.
- Dupixent (dupilumab) comes as a 200 mg/300 mg prefilled pen (or syringe) used for conditions like eczema and asthma .
- Enbrel (etanercept) is delivered via a SureClick® autoinjector for autoimmune conditions such as arthritis .
All require safe sharps disposal—something you don’t want to hold onto loosely in your bag. Carrying around a used auto-injector isn’t just inconvenient—it can also be risky. These pens contain exposed needles that could accidentally poke through a bag or injure someone if not properly secured. Plus, storing them loosely can lead to leakage or contamination, which no one wants to deal with when they’re on the move.
