    Safe to reuse syringe and drawneedle?

    So, i want to save bucks where i can. I wondered. Can i reuse the syringe a couple of times. And one of the needles. The one you pull the oil out of the vial with and use it for another drawing? Ofcourse i always inject with a fresh one.
    But could some gremlins enter the syringe and the drawneedle until next time if i choose to reuse them? And poison my bloodstreem?

    Ive already reused syringe/drawneedle some times and never felt any difference. Also reused both needles actually with no difference. Just a sligth more pain when injecting because the needle is not so sharp anymore.

    What do you think guys?

    Theres a high chance you will be fine as long as you keep sterilising everything after and before use.

    Its of course, as you will know, not advised though.

    I know you said you use fresh needle to inject but if your putting a dirty needle in your vial/oil then the bugs are still going to find their way into your body wether you inject with a new needle or not.

    It wouldn't even cross my mind to re-use.

    I say take every precaution.

    That's not were you cut costs. Never reuse a pin or syringe. Not worth the risk of infection

    X2 your not saving a lot here anyways. It could cost you more if something went wrong. Not worth the chance.

    you can effectively sterilize syringes, points, vials, etc. I, however, find syringes and points to be the most negligible expense of a cycle.

    You really can't, since the required temps would melt the plastic.

    A box of 100 syringes costs 10 dollars.

    A box of 100 needles costs 5 dollars.

    Reusing them isn't going to save you much money.

    I use the same draw needle many times. Just be as careful and clean as possible.

    Of all the things that can go wrong with taking steroids , getting a serious infection is by far my worst fear. It is one of those things that you will not be able to easily forgive yourself for; especially when counting the nickles and dimes you saved yourself through the process. Could you do it and get away with it? Of course. But, if something does go wrong you will really be mad at yourself. I wish I could locate the video post someone made on here, while sitting in the hospital with his cleaned out infection. There was a large gaping hole and you could see his muscles and tendons moving around that were totally exposed. It was pretty nasty and definitely not worth the risk.

    It would take 20 years before you would notice you even saved a little money, syringes and pins arent expensive (they are free in the UK, move over here?)

    That would also be difficult, being that the plastic is somewhat porous. Either way, definitely not practical, and probably not any cheaper than just buying more needles.

    x2, if you have to cut costs on a cycle, maybe work on your priorities first.

    The draw needle never comes into contact with bodily fluids. So I'd say yes. Reuse but no more than an arbitrary 3 times, the longer you use it, the more chance it will become exposed to pathogen in the environment. I do this out of laziness not to save money, but i always wipe a swab over the needle every time irrespective.

    I agree that it isnt practical, especially in an effort to safe money. But we've been teaching addicts how to do this for decades. *Can* it be done? Yes. Am I advocating it? No.
