My go to syringe BD 1mL 30G x 8mm for injecting strictly sub-q!
No issues drawing/injecting .75 ml (75 units) twice-weekly with Depo-Testosterone (testosterone cypionate) which uses cottonseed oil as the carrier.
Would be primo for drawing/injecting low volumes of the oily solution strictly sub-q for anyone following a daily injection protocol.
Tried numerous brands over the years and always come back to BD top notch quality product!
Needle
Made of stainless steel, which is siliconized to allow easier penetration, thus minimizing patient discomfort. Available in different lengths and gauges to suit individual clinical and patient needs.
There are three types of needle walls:
Regular Wall: This is the most common wall thickness. The thickness of the steel wall allows a good flow rate and minimizes flexing when the needle is inserted into a vial stopper or patient.
Thin Wall: As shown in the diagram, the thin wall needle has a narrower steel wall, allowing a greater volume of fluid to pass through it. The flow rate is typically equivalent to that of a needle one gauge larger. This is especially important with very thin needles.
Extra Thin Wall: This has the thinnest steel wall, provides higher flow, and requires less force to deliver medication.

- Using a BD thin-wall needle may enable you to use a smaller gauge needle as the flow rate is similar to a BD regular-wall needle one gauge larger
