You can get B12 ampoules(Hydroxocobalamin) from online German pharmacies . For the last 2 years I have used versandapo.de who are an accredited German online pharmacy . I pay €55 for 100 ampoules . You can buy them in smaller amounts .

Syringes , needles swabs and sharp boxes ( for disposal of needles ) from Medisave . Can’t remember price but very reasonable if you buy 10” at a time .

Like wedgewood I buy from Versandapo and Medisave. I have just done a second order with both. Both companies are extremely efficient.

With Versandapo I emailed telling them what I wanted and asked for a link to the site in English, which they duly sent. These are the ones I bought for SI; they cost 56euros plus 9 euros potage: versandapo.de/wirkstoffe/50...

My Medisave order was (100 needles and syringes):

BD MICROLANCE 3 NEEDLES BLUE 23G X 1" X 100SKU: ND8001£2.37

BD PLASTIPAK SYRINGES 2ML X 100SKU: SYR2851£3.89

SHARPSGUARD YELLOW 1 LTR SHARPS BINSKU: DD477YL/SINGLE1£1.15

The postage and packing and vat took the total to about £14.50. I may have paid over the top; you may find them cheaper elsewhere :-))

Are you in the UK? If so, all you need (apart from the ampules) can be acquired from needle exchange. I posted recently about my experience there the last time I stocked up. I get my ampules from goldpharma

I get my syringes from local chemist for free.

If you’re in UK some chemists give you syringes, needles, swabs and little needle container for used needles.

No harm in asking. Say you need needles and syringes and if they do them. Don’t get intravenous pack, (you need intermuscular pack). It will probably say steroids pack on it with 2ml or 5ml syringes (both are fine), and it will come with green and blue needles. You use the blue needles for intramuscular.

Hi Ryan.... Cheers for posting ☺... I've already asked my chemist... They won't give me them without a prescription 😔... But they did register me for a sharps box empty and exchange... All the best ☺

I bought 100 needles , syringes and swabs from exchangesupplies.org for about £14.. including postage. The postage stays the same whatever you order..

Your profile says that you live in Islington.

You can get NHS needles and syringes free from your local Needle Exchange. And a Sharps Bin too. Plus advice and support.

(I use Harlesden Needle Exchange. It gives an excellent service.)
