    Re-using syringes

    Ok probably a stupid question. I have enough needles to finish out my cycle but i'm short on the syringe's. There shouldn't be any problem if i sterilize and re use a plastic 3cc syringe as long as i use a new needle right?

    Why risk infection? Go on amazon.com and buy some needles and syringes. It's like 20 bucks for a box of 100.

    I cannot believe you are even considering this.

    No it is not okay. Are you really willing to take the chance? Any exposure to an outside non-sterile environemnt after you open the package is going to give opportunity for bacteria to breed over time.

    Don't be cheap, and just buy some new syringes. Don't be a Greg Valentino.

    no infection as long as new needle is used.... i would only suggest using it twice though and thats only if u need a shot and cannot get a hold of a new one in time, just dont make it a habbit....but yes they are super super cheap...my body is a am body builder a he actually uses the same syringe twice and throws it but changes the needle.

    theoretically if you steralized the syringe and used a new needle you'd be gtg, however ensuring that your syringe is sterile and stays that way through injecting is to me not worth the .15-.20 they cost. Even if you overnight them there only .30 each.

    yes but i would hate too use a needle that was already used that would hurt real bad... idont even use the same needle that i draw from the rubber stopper.

    You can find those easily and they are cheap. Dont reuse them.

    Don't do it, why you ask? well lets see, Reusing them presents a
    minor risk of infection and a much larger risk of pain. But most importantly You could also be introducing bacteria into the vial. Reusing them consistently doesn't make a lot of sense.

    Re-using a syringe would be the most retarded cheap ass idea ever. Open up your wallet and get some more its not worth saving $15-$20 when you could get yourself a nasty infection.
