If each pen holds 80 units and you take 16 units a day, thats 5 days of injections from one pen, 5 days devided by 90 days is 18 pens you would need for 3 months @ 16 units a day.
Revise:
if each pen holds a total 300 units 1500 units per box of 5 pens, at 16 units a day for 90 days you will need 4.8 pens or 5 pens per 90 days.
