Question about the needle 40u

[Peggy and Mickey (GA)]

I have the 40 u needle....it goes up to 40 units...the first thing is 5..that is 5 units.right? and I want 1 unit so it looks to be the very first line which only seems like a smidge. I used u100s before..and have them on order. Am I figuring this right. I feel like a tart.

I wish I could help but I have no knowledge on PZI.

There is a sticky that is full of all sorts of info, including a conversion chart for u40 syringes.

It may be helpful to look through the stuff at the about link.

Hopefully others will be along with more useful help for you.

Yes, the first little hash mark is 1u on that syringe. The "5" indicates 5 units.

Thank you! That is what I was thinking but wanted to be double sure.. :smile:

Smart move!!!! The syringes can be really confusing IMO and with such small doses, misreading the lines could be a real problem! I love it when people check first to be sure (although in this case I couldn't remember the U40 syringes to help, but thankfully Kelly was here! ).
