Comprehensive Usage Guide
Pre-Injection Preparation
Environment Setup
- Choose a quiet, well-lit area to minimize your pet’s stress
- Gather all supplies: insulin, syringe, alcohol swabs, disposal container
- Ensure room temperature is comfortable for your pet
- Have treats ready for positive reinforcement
Hand Hygiene & Safety
- Wash hands thoroughly with antibacterial soap
- Consider using medical gloves if recommended by your veterinarian
- Prepare a clean, flat surface for syringe preparation
Insulin Preparation
- Verify insulin type is U-40 and check expiration date
- Gently roll insulin vial between palms (never shake vigorously)
- Inspect insulin for clumping, frosting, or discoloration
- Allow refrigerated insulin to reach room temperature
Step-by-Step Injection Process
Drawing Up Insulin
- Remove syringe from sterile packaging without touching the needle
- Draw air into syringe equal to your pet’s prescribed dose
- Insert needle through insulin vial rubber stopper
- Inject air into vial to prevent vacuum formation
- Invert vial and slowly draw prescribed insulin dose
- Check for air bubbles and gently tap to remove them
- Double-check dose accuracy against prescription
Injection Site Selection & Rotation
- Primary Sites: Scruff of neck (most common and comfortable)
- Secondary Sites: Between shoulder blades, side of abdomen
- Rotation Schedule: Use different sites daily to prevent scar tissue buildup
- Site Inspection: Check for lumps, redness, or irritation before injecting
Injection Technique
- Gently pinch skin to create a “tent” of loose skin
- Insert needle at 45-90 degree angle with confident, quick motion
- Slowly depress plunger to deliver insulin over 2-3 seconds
- Hold needle in place for 2-3 seconds to prevent insulin leakage
- Quickly withdraw needle and release skin
- Provide immediate praise and treats for positive association
Post-Injection Care
- Comfort Measures: Gently pet and reassure your pet
- Site Monitoring: Watch injection site for any immediate reactions
- Documentation: Record injection time, dose, and site location
- Safe Disposal: Immediately place used syringe in sharps container
Safety Guidelines & Best Practices
