Hi, Please can someone advise me where I can purchase BD medical 2ml syringes and needles from as I currently have 0.5ml syringes but unfortunately my hand isn't long enough to be able to press it down. Several years ago with Dr Chandy I had the 2ml syringes and this was far easier but unfortunately I can't find where to purchase these from.

Any advice would be much appreciated thank you in advance.

Injecting requirements from medisave.co.uk

exchangesupplies.org

amazon.co.uk

For I.M. ( Intramuscular ) and Sub-cut ( subcutaneous)

2.5ml syringes ( for 1 or 2 ml ampoules )

My favourite syringe is the luer lock type. You can “screw” the needle onto the syringe , which makes it really secure .

Withdrawal needles- Coarse long needles say 19G x 1 1/2 inches or blunt withdrawal needles - 1 1/2 inches

———————————————————————— For I. M. Injections. - 26G x 1 inch needle or 25G x 1inch needle . ( injecting into the Vastus Lateralis muscle. Into the middle outer third of the thigh , where that muscle is nearest the surface )

————————————————————————

For subcutaneous injections. 30G x 1/2 inch needle into the tummy fat , or the front of the thigh .

———————————————————————

Also a yellow sharps bin and some alcohol swabs .

Best wishes
