U100 syringe help needed.

raysofhope (Diana) needs help finding the right U100 syringes.

Here is just one type from ADW. These have 1/2 unit markings. She may or may not need a vet prescription depending on laws in her state.

Hi Diana...

I hope the syringes get to you real soon. I use U100's for my sugar-kitty who gets low doses of ProZinc. It is so much easier to measure with them. I get them at my local CVS pharmacy.

Make sure you use the conversion chart. http://gorbzilla.com/files for download/dose_conversion_chart.PDF

To keep everything consistent for any ProZinc members that might need to help you....when you enter your dose amounts on your spreadsheet, use the U40 amount. Not everyone uses U100s.

I just found all of your posts today. Sue sure did a great job helping you. :smile:
