Syringe question

**kihop** · 06-10-2006, 11:12 PM

Do 20 Gauge, 1.5" Terumo Luer lock syringe combos have interchangeable needles or are they permantly attached? I thought I could purchase the 20 gauge 1.5 inch combos to draw with along with some 23 gauge needles seperately for injection.

Not sure if I made the right descision or if buying syringes w/o needles along with two seperate sets of needles would have been the right choice.

Yes you can swap them, not a permanent assembly.

Another quick question. Is there a big difference between Exel, Terumo and B-D syringes besides price. Any preferences?

BD from here on out. I used another brand once and the side flanges that you use to brace your finger under while injecting was/is too small and my fingers damn near slipped out from under. That would've hurt. BD dosen't have that issue, so it's BD from here on out.
