What do I need to know about insulin syringes?

Insulin syringes come in different sizes depending on the dose of insulin you need. Your healthcare provider or pharmacist will help you find the right size syringe. Use the correct size insulin syringe to make sure you get the right dose of insulin.

Where do I inject insulin?

• You can inject insulin into your abdomen, upper arm, buttocks, hip, and the front or side of the thigh. Insulin works fastest when it is injected into the abdomen.
• Do not inject insulin into areas where you have a wound or bruising. Insulin injected into wounds or bruises may not get into your body correctly.
• Use a different area within the site each time you inject insulin. For example, inject insulin into different areas in your abdomen. Insulin injected into the same area can cause lumps, swelling, or thickened skin.

How do I inject the insulin with a syringe?

Wash your hands with soap and water. This will help prevent an infection. Dry your hands with a clean towel or paper towel.

• Clean the skin where you will inject the insulin. You can use an alcohol pad or a cotton swab dipped in alcohol.
• Grab a fold of your skin. Gently pinch the skin and fat between your thumb and first finger.
• Insert the needle straight into your skin. Do not hold the syringe at an angle. Make sure the needle is all the way into the skin. Let go of the pinched tissue.
• Push down on the plunger to inject the insulin. Press on the plunger until the insulin is gone. Keep the needle in place for 5 seconds after you inject the insulin.
• Pull out the needle. Press on your injection site for 5 to 10 seconds. Do not rub. This will keep insulin from leaking out.
• Throw away your used insulin syringe as directed. Do not recap the syringe before you throw it away.
