Nintendo DSlite or DSi carry cases are perfect for carrying glass phials around. It will take about 6 5ml bricanyl phials and will even take (just) 10ml water for injection ones (I sometimes get glass and sometimes plastic water for injection). I have a nice Cath Kidstone one but they are really cheap and you can get a needles, alcohol wipe and a silloette in too. In the interest of experimentation I can get a 20ml syringe, 4 x 5ml bricanyl phials (lying down in the mesh bit), 2 needles, a alcohol type wipe and a silhoutte in one which is 24 hours worth of sub cut for most people.
sounds better than me durapore taping ampoules into the box bit they came in!
Thanks for the tip Bex
I brought the Cath Kidstone one for my DSlite and when I opened it I thought that looked perfect as a sub cut kit.
thank you Bex - that sounds like a really clever plan shall have to try this! Guess where I is going in the sales... Beats shoving syringes, needles and vials in my bag in a mess!
Always happy to pass on tips, a quick look on amazon shows them as £5 for the most basic and it gives you somewhere safe to store the empty phials. It was pure fluke I made the discovery.
Seasons Greetings

Sounds like a good idea! I usually just throw them in my bag too, have had pulled out a few stray needles sometimes when looking for purse and the look I get from shop assistants is priceless.
