You should change needles after drawing from ampoules/vials, on a vial its not good to use too large (20s are O-K 18 and larger sketchy) a needle as the septum (stooper) of the vial can be damaged however for an ampoule any size needle is fine. Warming the vials makes drawing easier and injection less painful.
Do air bubbles matter?I thaught it is only hazardous when inecting air into a vein. Not a big deal but try not to inject more air than you have to.
Also there was no bleeding after inection is this normal?(youtube inject vids always bleed).
