Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 11608 may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 11608-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 84, Medical devices for
injections.
ISO 11608 consists of the following parts, under the general title Pen-injectors for medical use:
� Part 1: Pen-injectors — Requirements and test methods
� Part 2: Needles — Requirements and test methods
� Part 3: Finished cartridges — Requirements and test methods

ISO 11608-3:2000(E)
Introduction
This part of ISO 11608 covers finished cartridges filled with medicinal products primarily intended for human use. It
provides performance requirements regarding essential aspects so that variations of design are not unnecessarily
restricted.
The devices described in this part of ISO 11608 are designed to be used with devices described in ISO 11608-1
and ISO 11608-2.
It is recognized that interchangeability of the components (pen-injector, needle and cartridge) is desirable for some
medicinal products and to be avoided for other medicinal products, and that future designs may change the current
concepts. Therefore ISO 11608-2 and ISO 11608-3 encourage interchangeability by establishing certain specific
requirements for interchangeable needles (Type A) and interchangeable cartridges (Type A) respectively.
Performance requirements are imposed on both interchangeable (Type A) and non-interchangeable (non-Type A)
cartridges. Additional dimensional requirements are imposed on interchangeable cartridges (Type A).
Information as to whether the components are interchangeable (Type A) or not will be given on the secondary
container.
It is desirable that non-Type A cartridges do not fit pen-injectors intended for type A cartridges.
The sampling plans for inspection selected for this part of ISO 11608 are intended to verify, at a high confidence
level, the manufacturer's ability to manufacture one “lot” of finished cartridges that conforms to the critical product
attributes. The sampling plans for inspection do not replace the more general manufacturing quality systems that
appear in standards on quality systems, e.g. the ISO 9000 series.
Regulatory authorities, pharmacopoeia and relevant trade associations should recognize the need for further
testing, especially regarding compatibility between the medicinal products and cartridge as they are in contact for
prolonged periods.
In some countries, national pharmacopoeia or government regulations exist and their requirements may take
precedence over or complement this part of ISO 11608. In particular, materials in contact with the medicinal
product shall comply with all relevant pharmacopoeia requirements.
