Needle size

[sportsfan8724]

Is a 25g 5/8 inch 1ml insulin syringe going to work just as good as a regular 25g 5/8 inch 1 ml needle for a quad injection? I have always used the needle with a detachable syringe but am seeing the same size in the insulin needle is much cheaper. Don't see why it would make a difference but just wanted to make sure I'm not overlooking anything?

How much fat do you have on your guads? And why inject in such troublesome area?

 

[sportsfan8724]

I'm pretty lean Nelson no more then 14 percent bf percent. Should I be going deeper? I've always done quads cause it's pain free and that's where I started with my first doctor years ago and have never had a problem. I know u like shoulders but it's easier for me to reach quads.

The 5/8 inch 25 gauge needle has always worked just fine in quads I just wasn't sure if an insulin syringe that same size would change anything and wanted to be sure.

Yes, if you are lean I say go for it.

Where did you find 25G 5/8 insulin syringes at?

Allegro medical

I don't think they make a permanently attached 25g 5/8 needle insulin syringe. They make 27 gauge 5/8 one. I checked allegro medical and the one that says 25g 5/8 insulin syringe has a detachable needle.. Or maybe I read it wrong..

That's the one I looked at. it has a detachable needle so its not really a typical insulin syringe, those are one piece. there is no difference between the one you looked at or any other 2 piece syringe...

 

[sportsfan8724]

It didn't look detachable to me but it should work either way hopefully lol. My screen is small so it's hard to see . I just know my old 25 g 5/8 in were a normal syringe not an insulin syringe but 25 g 5/8 should all be the same result wise in the end I feel.

I was pleasantly surprised too. A previous ExcelMale thread suggested healthykin.com
Delivery was very fast too. I think it arrived in just a couple days (I live in Colorado).
