Have you looked on Amazon? I was recommended them by others on this site. They will probably give you the links to them. Sorry I'm not good at things like that.

If you plan to inject 1ml at a time (which is the most common dose), it would be better to get a syringe that holds more than 1ml. The reason is because you need to be able to pull the plunger of the syringe farther back than the 1ml mark then push it forward again in order to get out any air bubbles. If you plan to inject less than 1ml at a time, then a 1ml syringe would work fine, otherwise a 2ml syringe would be better.

Sorry can't help - because I'm looking to buy some too! Are you able to say where you're getting it from? :)

Do you intend to do subcut or I'M? I do subcutaneous and buy 1/2 inch insulin needles, 100 at a time from amazon. I manage ok with 1ml syringes. I have found it difficult to find 2 ml insulin syringes.
