What Type of Auto Injector?

Postby RalphB » Tue Jan 24, 2017 7:49 pm

Hey Guys,

What type of auto injector do I need to accommodate an Edex syringe? I've already wasted money on an Autoject EI and it's too narrow for the Edex syringe. :x

Thanks,

Ralph

If you need to use an auto injector, why not buy some single use 30g 1/2 inch 100ml syringes. If you pull out the plunger you can squirt the required dose of Edex into the syringe, replace the plunger, tap syringe to remove the air and use the auto injector as normal.

I am on trimix and use BD U-100 syringes 29 gauge 1/2 inch length. Have had excellent success with the "Ambimed Inc Inject-Ease Automatic Injector"....hope this helps...
