Why use a special syringe to inject insulin?

 

The reason why you need to use a special syringe to inject insulin can not be replaced by a common syringe, because the scale units marked on the two are different. The scale marked on the special insulin syringe is the insulin unit, while the scale on the ordinary syringe is the milliliter. The minimum unit of an ordinary syringe is usually 0.1 ml, which is equivalent to 4 units of insulin after conversion, and the insulin dose that most patients need to inject is not an integer multiple of 4. Therefore, if an ordinary syringe is used, the patient not only needs to convert the dose and volume, but also it is difficult to accurately draw the required dose.Here's why Choose  Insulin Syringes.

What precautions should be taken when using an insulin syringe?

 

Insulin syringes include traditional syringes, pen insulin syringes, insulin pumps, etc.

In China, insulin syringes are still frequently used. Care must be taken to use appropriate syringes (eg U-40, U-100) for different concentrations of insulin. Before the insulin is drawn, a syringe is used to inhale a volume of air equivalent to the insulin dose, and then the air is injected into the insulin bottle to make the insulin easier to draw. If there are air bubbles in the syringe, tap the syringe barrel lightly to accumulate the air bubbles on the surface of the liquid medicine on the upper part of the syringe, and then push the inner plug to expel the air bubbles. Unlike insulin injection pens, the inner plug of the syringe can be pulled out by pushing it in place, and it does not need to stay under the skin for 10 s. Syringes are for single use only.
