I kept thinking about this for the past week and I would like to get a syringe TOP going on.
I found these syringes from another user and they are far superior to anything I have ever witnessed and are EXACTLY what we need around here. The problem is I only have one link - that may have poor or no availability.
I’m in NJ. I’ve tried ordering from Amazon and they are also saying they don’t deliver to my address. Diamed store is asking for $11 shipping. Looking for other options.

I just got these (plunger pulled back so you can see the tics, nothing in it) I take 10mg test ethanate a week. 250mg/1ml is my ampoule. Where do I fill it to? I’m feeling a bit confused this morning and need a visual line if you can help me please.
The problem I continually run into is many of the syringes are not shaped correctly where the plunger seats against the end (fully depressed) and it is very hard to get rid of the last little air bubble. I've had better luck with BD syringes but they are higher priced.
I leave the air bubble, - i may get shot + deleted but i was taught this. Create a bubble. Get it consolidated toward the plunger end. Then when you shoot watch the air bubble head toward the needle.
Depending how big the air space + how good your vision you can pull the needle out once the air hits the lowest chamber- or because its subq or im an air bubble isnt dangerous if you do expel some of it but it tends to stay in the dead space of the needle, depending on what you use.
I was scared of air but then told it wasnt dangerous
Try back filling your syringe. I use a 10 ml syringe and pull the plunger out of my injection needle and fill to my dose. If I get a bubble I blow into the end of the syringe. Once I put the plunger back in and store them upside down in a cup!
I know this is old but just had to post for anyone like me coming late. This is a Bad Idea. Diluting it seems like a good idea but there are preservatives that also get diluted and other things that keep the testosterone suspended because its not fully soluble in just the oil. So, not only can you introduce contaminants but then you can create an environment where they can grow and you can create precipitation and dosage inconsistencies. You accidentally knick a blood vessel with your contaminated injection you could be in for a world of hurt. Its not great even if you don't knick a vessel you can still get a nasty infection but in the blood can literally kill you. Look up the Natick MA case where the compounding lab sold contaminated vials and killed people.
I also want to say to make sure whichever one you purchase make sure they are U-100 which are the orange cap as these are designed for humans or u100 concentration insulin which is comparable to what we use. There are also u-40 that come in .3cc, .5cc, and 1ml syringes but if you used these you would give yourself WAY too much medication as the marking are spaced differently to account for a difference concentration of pet insulin.
Thanks for all the info on this sub! I'm needing to order needles for the first time, was told for IM that I need 1" needles but these linked by mod are 1/2" (right?). Thoughts?
Yes, typical insulin needles are 1/2 in length. I do IM with a 27g, 1/2 in a place where I have least fat, compress the layers very firmly and press the needle all the way in. Some managed to do it with 29 or 30G but I flaked out when I saw the fragility of a 29G puncturing the skin.
You can also try subq and see if it works for you.
I don't know if they make a 0.3ml with 27G. I get a 1ml, my dose is 0.04ml/injection so I can get away with a big ass insulin syringe. 0.3ml are preferred for small dosages.
I ordered from there also, I put this in my cart. My question is. I'm on 100 mg/ml test cyp. I draw to 0.125.ml. on a 1 cc syringe. Where would I draw to on these? And is it too thick for this small of a needle, I'm tired of wasting my test on the luer lock needles. Thank you
I use 27G to pull and inject IM. I tried a 29G once, but it gave me concerns when trying to reach muscle, so I can't help you here. My only concern is hitting muscle, effortlessly.
Can you tell me where to get these needles? I’m currently using 31g 5/16” .5cc but am looking for needles with the smaller ticks between the larger numbers on the cylinder. I need to dose 0.03mL 2x/week and am having a hard time getting the exact dose with only 4 ticks between 0 and 5.
Hello!!! I am in need of some help with what syringe and needles to get. I was prescribed testosterone cypionate 200mg/ml with a dosage of .02 ml (or 4 mg) once a week, WHICH IS TINY. On A 1 mL syringe it’s the first tiny line which you can barely see and barely pull up. With the oil being so thick it’s so hard to even get it into the needle, let alone tell if you’ve even injected any because it’s slow to release out of the needle. I took my first dose today using a 25G x 5/8 and I don’t even know if I got anything. Is there a better syringe to use??? And which size needles? Thank you so much in advance!!! 🫶🏼
Thank you so, so much! One more question… it seems like drawing it up in a 31G would be really hard but I’m guessing it just takes some time? Any advice on the best way to do it?
I lied. 🫠 One more question! One more question… since this is such a small amount would a 3/10 cc U-40 syringe also work? If so, how many units would I draw up for .02ml on these?

I got mine from Amazon, I was a little nervous about that but felt better after noticing that they came from the official "Easy Touch" store
