Preloaded syringes

Postby new2needles » Sun Jul 08, 2012 5:21 pm

Does anyone, keep a prefilled syringe ready in the fridge? I'm thinking it would reduce the time to get the mix out, fill the syringe, put it back in the fridge and then to the bathroom for the injection. Seems like it should be O.K., but I'm not sure. Also, how long would a syringe prefilled be o.k. for in the fridge?

If I feel I will be taking an injection later in the day, I will pre fill a syringe and leave it in the bathroom, to reduce the time it takes to "shoot up." Mahes the transition from limp to hard less awkward.
