  1. #1

    is it ok to use the same needle+syringe twice in a row?

    i only have 3cc syringes and i inject 4ml


    if i inject 3ml then squirt out the remnants from pinning, can i draw another ml with that same syringe/needle i used and be fine?


    im sure it would, its still sterile...just confirming

    not a good idea.. pins are cheap.. not worth the risk of infection or contaminating your gear..

    yeah...NO...I know of people who use the syringe again, but not the same needle that is a recipe for disaster..
    (Not that I would use or recommend using the same syringe) they are pennies on the dollar..

    lmfao. I never use needles again just for the fact that they get sooo much duller with each inj then add it going thru a rubber stopper and ....ouch.. But i know people who do reuse them each twice and they are fine. I injected a guy 4 different times with the same needle and he was fine... but that doesnt prove anything really jsut cuz he got lucky

    As the needle gets duller you risk coring the stopper. The you will need to use a filter needle to draw it out.

    NO!!! It's not something you should do. You risk infection. Pins are so cheap and readily available there is no excuse to have to reuse one.

    If you do that, you're contaminating your vial with biological material.

    bad for vial and leg i have friends who have tried and said they dull after one pin and next time hurt like crazy going into leg

  23. #23
    Obviously everyone has already said, don't do it.

    I do know people who have used the same pin for puncturing the vial, just so it doesn't dull the pin they're going to use.

    That's why you should buy your syringes with a drawing needle attached, and pinning needles separately.

    No worse than using a condom twice in a row for anal sex with an HIV positive hooker.

    By the way when you use the needle to puncture the vial how do you determine if its dull?

    This has to be one of the most retarded posts I've ever seen. It's not sterile to reuse needles... If you do this, can you take some pictures of the infection you're going to get and upload them here before you go to the ER?

    That's easy... you poke yourself on the tongue. If your tongue bleeds, it's G2G.

    I try and put the needle through the used condom. Depending on how it easy it goes through i use or discard.

    you guys dont make any sense. If the needle you JUST poked into your skin and injected is pulled out, what would make it not be sterile anymore?

    What if someone aspirated and blood came up? They just pull the needle out and poke it into a different place..

    If the needle doesnt touch anything besides going through your skin, its still going to be sterile

    wheres the common sense at on this board? this is by no means a stupid question you ****tards

    Do you know what sterile means?
    So if someone else uses the needle you can still use it because its still sterile by your definition as long as it doesn't touch anything else besides their skin? Right?

    As soon as that needle touches anything it is no longer sterile. Even if it is just your skin it's gone through! And really, this is stupid to argue about given that needles are so ****ing cheap. But if you want to argue this with us about this, then just reuse the needle. Then you can start a thread here about how you got some gnarly looking abscess and you want to know if we think you should go to the doctor.

    Wrong.

    adj.
    1. Not producing or incapable of producing offspring.
    2. Free from all live bacteria or other microorganisms and their spores.

    The flaming is all about making sure injections are taken seriously...ironic though right?

    Do not re-use needles..."1st year" information

    My turn.

    You do realize that your skin is COVERED with bacteria, right? No, of course you didn't.
    Nothing you can do will truly sterilize your skin. Even alcohol wipes only disinfect the area (which is hardly the same as sterilizing)
    However, the potentially harmful microorganisms in your body and on your skin are kept in check by others (helpful bacteria, if you will).
    If you shove a needle through your skin, it is now contaminated to some degree.
    When you shove that same needle back into your vial, you have introduced both innocuous and potentially harmful contaminants into your gear.
    Now, what happens if the benzyl alcohol in your gear only kills off the good stuff, but the nasty shit keeps replicating? Short answer: you're ****ed.

    Now learn some goddamn humility and apologize to all the good people here for trying to save you from your own ignorance.
    Any other brilliant questions, Fukctard?

    regardless of the sterility issues of the needle in question, the OP is using the same needle that he just used to draw juice again.
    He's gonna contaminate his gear, which is even worse than using a needle twice. He's gonna shoot that contaminated gear every
    week from then on.

    Just go and buy more needles man. they're dirt cheap
