Description
This Yingquankeji Insulin Syringe is designed for administering U-100 insulin, commonly prescribed for diabetic pets like cats and dogs. The 0.3 ml capacity is suitable for small, precise doses, which is often necessary for smaller animals. Its 31-gauge needle is very fine, which helps to minimize injection discomfort for the pet. The short 5/16-inch needle is appropriate for subcutaneous injections.
Fine Gauge Needle (31G): Features an ultra-fine needle to allow for a less painful injection experience for your pet. Low Volume Capacity (0.3 ml): The small syringe size allows for accurate and clear measurement of small insulin doses, which is often required for cats and dogs. U-100 Concentration Specific: Designed exclusively for use with U-100 concentration insulin, ensuring correct dosage without the need for conversion. Clear Barrel with Bold Markings: A transparent barrel with easy-to-read markings helps pet owners measure doses accurately and prevent errors. Sterile and Single-Use: Each syringe is sterile and intended for single use to maintain hygiene and safety.
Q: What does U-100 mean on this syringe?
A: The 'U-100' indicates the syringe is designed for U-100 insulin, which has a concentration of 100 units of insulin per milliliter (mL). It is critical to match the syringe type to the insulin concentration prescribed by your veterinarian to ensure accurate dosing.
Q: What are the benefits of the 31G x 5/16" needle size for a pet?
A: A 31-gauge (31G) needle is very fine, which helps to minimize discomfort for your pet during injection. The 5/16" (approximately 8mm) length is short, which is suitable for a subcutaneous injection (just under the skin) without hitting muscle.
Q: Can this syringe be used for both cats and dogs?
A: Yes, U-100 insulin syringes can be prescribed for both cats and dogs with diabetes mellitus to help manage their blood sugar. However, the type of insulin and the dosage must be determined by a veterinarian.
Q: Are these syringes reusable?
A: No, insulin syringes are designed for single use only. Reusing them can lead to contamination and infection, and the needle can become dull, causing more pain to your pet.
Q: Why is the 0.3 ml capacity useful for pets?
A: A 0.3 ml syringe holds a maximum of 30 units of U-100 insulin. This smaller capacity, with its more spaced-out markings, allows for more precise and accurate measurement of the small insulin doses often required by cats and dogs.

Direction for Use/Dosage
1. Always wash your hands before handling the insulin and syringe. 2. Confirm the correct insulin dose as prescribed by your veterinarian. 3. Gently roll the insulin vial to mix, as instructed. Do not shake it. 4. Uncap the syringe and draw air into it, equal to your pet's insulin dose. 5. Insert the needle into the rubber top of the insulin vial and inject the air. 6. Turn the vial upside down and carefully pull the plunger to draw the correct dose of insulin, ensuring there are no air bubbles. 7. Gently lift a fold of your pet's skin, typically around the scruff of the neck, to form a "tent". 8. Insert the needle into the tented skin and push the plunger to administer the full dose. 9. Safely dispose of the used syringe in a designated sharps container. It is recommended to get a demonstration from your veterinarian on the proper injection technique.
