For Example, If You Are Taking 20 Units Per Shot, You Could Use Either A 0.5cc/50 Unit Syringe Or A 0.3cc/30 Unit Syringe. If You Are Taking 60 Units, Use A 1cc/100 Unit Syringe.

It Is Easier To Read A 15 Unit Dosage On A 0.3cc/30 Unit Syringe Than On A 0.5cc/50 Unit Syringe. There Is Nothing Wrong With Doing A 15 Unit Dosage On A 1cc/100 Unit Syringe, But Remember, Being Precise With Your Dosage Leads To Better Diabetes Management.

The Actual Dimensions Are: Outside Diameter Inside Diameter Nominal Wall Thickness 28 Gauge .014 Inches .0065 Inches .0035 Inches 29 Gauge .013 Inches .0065 Inches .003 Inches 30 Gauge .012 Inches .0055 Inches .003 Inches 31 Gauge .010 Inches .0045 Inches .0025 Inches The Larger The Gauge Size, The Smaller The Outside Diameter, And Therefore, The Smaller The Hole Put In You. One Would Initially Think, "the Smaller The Hole, The Less Discomfort, The Better!" This Is Not Always The Case. Please Note That The Inside Diameter Remains The Same For 28 And 29 Gauge, And Though The 30 Gauge Inside Diameter Is Smaller On The 29 Gauge And 30 Gauge, The Nominal Wall Thickness Is Smaller. This Means That The Needle Will Be Weaker And More Likely To Bend If You Do Not Inject Straight In, Or Have Particularly Tough Skin, Or A Lot Of Callouses. You And Your Physician Or Diabetes Educator Must Be The Judge Of Your Comfort Level And Needs.
