  Or from draw into injection

    Insulin needles are used in this way, because they’re usually permanently attached to their syringe. Rather than using a drawing needle then an injection needle.

      Oh does insulin have a thick rubber stopper? I’m a lemmy stereotype and so my only experience with injections is estrogen

        Uhm… same! So I couldn’t tell you. I do have a friend that’s type 1, but she uses an insulin pump these days.

      Aye, and besides drug users on the streets, that’s who the top picture was actually for. I can’t recall how many of those signs I’ve seen when I was picking up needles with my insulin. I also know my uncle reused his up to 10 times or so. Worst I’ve ever gone was like 5-6. It’s actually quite difficult to get needles when you’re not at home and forget some (and they’re annoyingly easy to forget).
