VV

the vacuum will pull it in. let it. fighting it is how you get a face full of aerosol

AO

is it worth buying a 3ml syringe for the diluent or is the insulin one fine

BB

do you let it come to room temp before drawing or draw it cold

AO

weighing the vial before you reconstitute is the only way to catch an underfill

the meniscus thing is real. read it at eye level or you are guessing by a unit either way

5mg in 2ml gives 2.5mg/ml, 0.25mg is 10 units. good for a starting dose

VV

30mg in 3ml is 10mg/ml, so 5mg is 50 units. half the barrel, feels like a lot but its right

BB

is the meniscus reading actually a real source of error or am i overthinking

is it worth buying a 3ml syringe for the diluent or is the insulin one fine
