We have had so many post about injecting problems or now my shit is sore or how do I do it..so here it is
Injecting the steroid, is the way most users go. Most injectables only have to be taken once or twice a week. There are three major areas where steroids are injected, they are the safest areas of the body to inject. These areas are: the glute, the shoulder, and the thigh. These areas offer a large area where the needle can be injected safely. DO NOT SIMPLY STICK THE NEEDLE INTO YOUR GLUTE AND INJECT THE STEROID. It has to be in a precise location. The steroid user should have done countless hours of research on injecting steroids, and anabolic steroids in general before, injecting, or even thinking about taking anabolic steroids. For more information on injecting, what types of needles, where to inject, how to withdraw the liquid,.
*** sure you know and understand all of the steps involved. Never use a needle more than once and NEVER EVER share needles with ANYONE else! If you have any questions regarding injectable steroids, please feel free to use the discussion forum. Apart from the specific technique of injecting, there are a few general rules that you should keep in mind.
Expiry dates
Check the expiry dates of each item including the drug.
Drug
Make sure that the vial or ampoule contains the right drug in the right strength.
Sterility
During the whole preparation procedure, material should be kept sterile.
Wash your hands before starting to prepare the injection.
Disinfect the skin over the injection site.
No bubbles
Make sure that there are no air bubbles left in the syringe. (I leave some so I get all the gear)
This is more important in intravenous injections.
Prudence
Once the protective cover of the needle is removed extra care is needed.
Do not touch anything with the unprotected needle.
Once the injection has been given take care not to prick yourself or somebody else.
Waste
Make sure that contaminated waste is disposed of safely.
Materials needed
Syringe with the drug to be administered (without air), needle (Gauss 22, long and medium thickness; on syringe), liquid disinfectant, cotton wool, adhesive tape.
Technique
Wash your hands.
Reassure yourself / patient's for procedure.
Uncover the area to be injected (lateral upper quadrant major gluteal muscle, lateral side of upper leg, deltoid muscle).
Disinfect the skin.
Relax the muscle.
Insert the needle swiftly at an angle of 90 degrees (watch depth!).
Aspirate briefly; if blood appears, withdraw needle. Replace it with a new one, if possible, and start again from point 4.
Inject slowly (less painful).
Withdraw needle swiftly.
Press sterile cotton wool onto the opening. Fix with adhesive tape.
Check yourself / patient's reaction and give additional reassurance, if necessary.
Clean up; dispose of waste safely; wash your hands.
Ok hope this helps
