Using same needle to draw and inject with peptides

[Astartes]

Been doing it this way for about 12 years now and never had an issue

I would say I’m not a fan of re-using the needle. That said, I have at least 5 friends who have done this for a decade and had zero issues.

Naturally they swab the skin and stopper.

I believe risk of infection sub -q while easier to treat is also probably significantly less. Deep muscle infection is what scares me and keeps me with 3-4 courses of 4 different antibiotics on hand.

I’m a swap needle after draw guy on oil and IM injections. No skipping steps there for me.

Absolutely scared of an IM infection as well but subq not so much. I still always swab the vile and area when reusing for subq. IM is ALWAYS a new needle and syringe. I draw with a 23g and inject with a 27g unless I’m using a slin pin which I’ll justw warm the vial and draw and inject with same obvi

With insulin needles I draw and shoot. Then I toss.
