German term or phrase: f Pen [...] E s.c.
Full phrase: "Humalog Mix 25 Inj Susp 100 IE/ml f Pen 20 - 0 - 0 - 0 E s.c."

I can't quite figure out what "f Pen" and "E s.c." mean. I think "Pen" would be "pen" and "s.c." stands for "subcutaneous", but can't be sure, and I have no idea what "f" and "E" would be.

Für Pen, Einheiten


Explanation:
"100 IE/ml" means "100 internationale Einheiten". That's for sure.

"f Pen" indicates that the suspension is for an injection pen. Not so sure.

"20 0 0 0 E s.c." indicates some sort of composition, with E being short for IE, in other words: Einheiten, units.

Makes sense?
