What size syringes does Evra supply?

1ml insulin syringes, marked to 100 units, 31 gauge with an 8mm needle. A unit is the same on every insulin syringe, so a measurement in units is the same whatever syringe you use.

How many units are in 1ml?

100 units. Units are a universal insulin-syringe marking, so 1ml is always 100 units regardless of syringe size, and 0.1ml is always 10 units.

How many syringes come in a pack?

Ten per pack. Each is individually wrapped and single-use.

Can I reuse a syringe?

No. They are single-use. The needle dulls after one pass through a stopper and reuse risks contaminating the vial.

Fine-gauge insulin needles, suited to drawing from a reconstituted vial.

Syringes & units

Insulin syringes, units and millilitres

Units and millilitres are different scales and mixing them up changes your measurement a hundredfold. Here are the conversions, which hold on any insulin syringe.

Nearly 900 of the questions we get are about syringes, and most come down to one thing: units and millilitres are different scales, and mixing them up changes your measurement by a factor of a hundred.

What we supply

Evra supplies 1ml insulin syringes, marked to 100 units, 31 gauge with an 8mm needle. Our guides work in millilitres and units, so they apply whatever insulin syringe you are using.

1ml is 100 units, and 0.1ml is 10 units. A unit is the same on every insulin syringe, so read your measurement in units, not by how far along the barrel it sits. This is the single most common mix-up we correct.

The conversions

Volume	Units
0.05ml	5 units
0.1ml	10 units
0.2ml	20 units
0.5ml	50 units
1ml	100 units
2ml	200 units
5ml	500 units

Units are universal across insulin syringes, 1ml is 100 units on any of them. What changes between syringe sizes is only the barrel, so a dose written in units is drawn to the same marking whichever syringe you have.

Working out how many you need

Convert the total volume of liquid in your vial to units, then divide by the units you draw each time. A vial reconstituted with 2ml of bacteriostatic water holds 200 units, so drawing 20 units at a time gives you ten draws.

Plan on one syringe per draw, since they are single-use.

Handling

Wipe the vial stopper with an alcohol wipe before every draw.
Use a fresh syringe each time. They are individually wrapped for that reason.
Draw slowly to avoid pulling air or foaming the solution.
Dispose of used syringes in a sharps container, not household rubbish.
