Is this the U100 syringe that most of you use?
When the vet switched us to ProZinc she sold us some 3/10cc 1/2 inch 29 gauge U40 syringes. So I've been using them. That supply is almost used up. I have over 400 1/2cc 1/2 inch 29 gauge U40 syringes in the cabinet (I buy in bulk to save $$$) and looking at them, there's no way, no way I'll be able to use them and give even 1/2 units with any accuracy or consistency. And at least one of you is telling me that .05u adjustments are sometimes called for? Please!
So other than U-100 instead of U-40 (and I understand I'd need to do some math, or use a conversion chart, to find the correct dose on these) it looks like these are shorter and thinner needles too?
