Does anyone in Australia know where you can get insulin syringes with half unit measurements? Everywhere I've looked only have full units. I would like to have a supply of them for when the time comes to lower his dosage.

Caspar is on lantus

Thanks in advance

Thanks to Bron & Sheba, I got mine from hyperdrug.co.uk. Got them last week, took 10 days from when I ordered them. The only thing is they don’t advise you when they ship and they send it untracked - very unusual for online shopping. After about a week I emailed them and the did tell me when they were sent but couldn’t give me any way to track the parcel. Fortunately it arrived a few days later

I would start off with a box of 100 and see how you go. Don’t use them for when you are giving whole units. Just use them for the doses inbetween the 1, 2 etc. For the whole units use the 1 unit syringes from Australia. That’s what I did.

That's a good idea. Thanks very much. :）
 
I bought 2 boxes seeing as the shipping cost more than one box! I think if I need to buy again I’ll buy at least 4 to save on shipping each time.

I was looking at the shipping cost as well. The syringe itself seems to be the same as price in Australia if not including shipping.
