    I would use one needle and make sure the tops of the vials are swabbed with alcohol. Then change needle to inject

    If i catch my self inserting a pin into a vial over 2 times, its pretty much gone dull, i always swap heads at that point. I did it today with out swaping i felt like i was pusing a ink pin into me ouch..

    Its not necessary to swab the needle since it is going into a sterile vial and you are swabbing the tops of the vial anyway so in a sense the needle passing through the swabbed stopper is applying alcohol to the needle as well, but if it makes you feel safer you can swab the needle with no harm done

    I swab all the vials like sman said but I inject with the same needle to.

    If I would have got the correct package shipped to me I would switch the needle as well.

    So hitting two vials and then injecting is ok right? Thats what I have done in the past and I have never felt too much pain injecting.

    It is actually better to not switch needles between vials (though always better to switch before injecting). If you switch needles between vials you need to be sure to draw air into the needle first, so you do not throw gear away with the pin. The same is true when you swap before injecting.

    How much gear could be inside a pin?

    I thought it might be just enough to make a little bubble.

    swab vial top with alcohol and needle and you will be fine, just make sure to change needle before you do injection. Also when loading more then one item into syringe, if you are using all oil based, there is no worry,

    good luck to you
