Syringes

[Dionnfr]

As a new member to injections, just wondering what size syringes are most of you using. Is it the 100ml or something else?

[postra7777]

100 Ml, but would like to go to 50 because I use less than 10 units per injection. 29 1/2" gage. Would like to go to 30 but hard to find at Walmart.

28 guage 1/2" 100 ml but like above poster I would like smaller since I inject less than 10 units. Also use a Autoject el for injections.

fordman, Does your local Walmart sell syringes?
If so, mine has .50ml, 1/2", 29 gauge ones for around $12.50.

I use 50 unit 28 gauge 1/2" I think they are same as used for insulin.

If you use a lot less than 30 units they have a 30 unit syringe. I use one with 30G 1/2" needle.

Since I only use 3 to 5 units of Trimix, I bought the 3/10 cc sized syringes from Diabetic Supply with a 30 ga., 1/2 in. needle. They are marked with single units so it is easier to figure out the low dose. The 1 ml syringes is marked in 2 unit increments.
