Syringe sizes

[muscles29]

Ok. I've never done any injectable substances before so I'm new to the syringes sizes and all of that.

But I'm going to inject some B12. I got some 30 guage insulin needles here. They are 1cc or 100 units.

I looked this up and it says that 1cc=1ml. And that's exactly how much I should inject. So basically it seems like I have to fill up this syringe to the max, that seems like alot. I justed wanted to make sure since this will be my first injection.

It seems funny because the b12 vial suppose to have 100ml in it. But it doesn't look like it could feel up the syringe 100 times. I could be wrong though. Someone let me know.

What is the dosage (mg/ml) of the B-12? Dose is more important than amount!

100ml vial... does it look this big?

yeah, need to know the dosage, and how much you plan on taking. one 100ml vial does not always equal another 100ml vial. AG-Guys B12 is 1000mcg per ML, but alot of other places might be less, and some might be more. So if yours it the same dosage as AG guys, and you want 1000mcg of b12, then yes, you'd just use 1cc. But if it was 500mcg/ml you'd have to use 2cc's.

A 100ml bottle is about 3inches tall, give or take, and looks just like the pic mike posted.

a ml can look different in a big 100ml vial as compared to how it may look in an insulin syringe
