    NO way man needles are so cheap why take the chance! The only way I've heard of somebody reusing a needle was boiling it, but I advise against it, why not just by another ???

    NO, throw the contaminated needle away!! It could have some bacteria and could infect the site of injection. I used to work in the hospital as a nurse and a lot of heroin users that shoot up (IM) intermuscular get a chunk of flesh removed surgically because there needles are contaminated w/ bacteria. Best advice buy another needle!
