Insulin Syringes with Needles?

[eloquentladybug]

Can one use insulin syringes with needles to inject B12? They sell 100 in a box for $40.00. Seems simpler. Initially, more than 20 years ago, the doctor I had prescribed daily at home injections and the pharmacy he used delivered the B12 monthly in a 30ml bottle along with a box of syringes with needles already attached. Oh the good ole days. How did things get so complicated? My head is reeling. Tiny little glass vials that you have to break into with a snapper....glass shards threatening you....buy the syringes here....buy the needles there.....buy needles for sucking...buy needles for injecting....put the needle in the syringe somehow. (I still have to learn how to do that) Wah

Much safer to use single ampoules. Also disposable needles and syringes. I do Subcutaneous b12 injections with 30G needles 1/2"long. With compatible 2ml disposable syringes.

Insulin is mostly delivered in pens now.

Also less volume than b12.

But yes sc.

It is simple once you do it a few times.

Wedgewood and fbider give a clear methods if you search .

I never thought I'd be doing this.

Needs must.

Im. Prescribed b12 but in the UK syringes and needles difficult to get on prescription ?? Also cheaper to buy.

I hope you get sorted.

Thanks for your reply. There is definitely a learning curve here for me.
