Newbie Vial Question

[Ammar]

For those single vial steroids , how do you break the vial so you can put the needle in there?

[Trevor]

Get a fingernail file and file around the top just a little bit. Then get the lid off of a bic ink pen and put the ink pen lid over the top of the vial and just snap it off in a smooth quick motion.
Good luck

Is it possible to just use some sort of pliers and just cut it that way?

Ammar: It`s not a stupid question, you just putted it to wrong place. Put it under "Steroid Questions".

[Ammar]

OK my bad guys...but can I just use pliers to cut the top open or is that unsafe and unsterile?

Amp opener works beautifully.

[Ammar]

where can I find an amp opener?

Ammar,

Were you talking about a small vial or a glass ampule, cause I noticed later you also mention using pliers?

Cause if so you would just need to remove a section on the top to expose the rubber stopper. You would end up swabbing the rubber stopper with an alcohol swab to make it sterile before pushing your pin through.
