- Before selecting supplies, understand the functional differences between syringe types and needle configurations. Not all insulin syringes are equivalent. Barrel material, plunger design, and needle attachment method affect both dosing accuracy and sterility maintenance.
- Insulin Syringe
- 0.3–0.5mL barrel, 29–31G × 5/16" needle, fixed needle (non-detachable)
- Subcutaneous peptide injection
- Dead space volume ≤0.02mL ensures accurate microdosing; fixed needle prevents hub contamination during attachment
- Blunt-Tip Drawing Needle
- 18–20 gauge, Luer-lock compatible, blunt bevel
- Reconstitution (drawing bacteriostatic water, injecting into vial)
- Wide bore prevents turbulent flow; blunt tip prevents rubber stopper coring that contaminates solution
- Luer-Lock Syringe
- 3–5mL barrel, polypropylene
- Reconstitution only (never for injection)
- Luer-lock threading prevents needle detachment during aspiration; larger barrel accommodates full bacteriostatic water volume
- Alcohol Prep Pad
- 70% isopropyl alcohol, individually sealed
- Vial stopper disinfection before each puncture
- 70% concentration achieves bacterial kill with 10-second contact time; higher concentrations evaporate before sterilization
- Bacteriostatic Water
- 0.9% benzyl alcohol, USP grade, sterile
- Peptide reconstitution
- Benzyl alcohol inhibits bacterial growth for 28 days post-reconstitution; must be sterile to prevent introducing contamination
- Sharps Container
- FDA-compliant, puncture-resistant, locking lid
- Used needle disposal
- Prevents needlestick injuries; required for biohazard compliance in most jurisdictions
