1. A casing for a pen-type injector having a tubular housing containing a separate container of medicament, where the casing comprises:
a first shell section comprising an opening configured to hold the pen-type injector;
a second shell section configured to attach to the first shell section to form a shell enclosing the pen-type injector except for a proximal end of the pen-type injector,
wherein each of the first shell section and second shell section further comprises:
two longitudinal edges;
a cut-out located at a proximal end configured to form a central passage when the second shell section is attached to the first shell section, where the central passage is sized to permit the proximal end of the pen-type injector to protrude through the central passage;
two longitudinal contact surfaces located along the longitudinal edges; and
a plurality of attachments located on the two longitudinal contact surfaces, wherein mating of a first set of attachments on the first shell section with a second set of attachments on the second shell section will interact to lock the shell sections to each other to form the shell,
wherein the first shell section and the second shell section further comprise a longitudinal opening positioned such that each longitudinal opening will align with openings in an outer housing of the pen-type injector so as to permit a user to view a content of medicament located within the pen-type injector when the pen-type injector is positioned within the formed shell.
