    Does it matter what kind of rubbing alcohol?

    topic says it all. Is regular CVS brand of ethyl rubbing alcohol fine for use pre-injection? or does it have to be a certain kind? thanks

    while you're at CVS,

    pick up the alcohol prep pads that come pre-packed.

    much more sanitary than putting rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball
