Usage

For use only by trained healthcare professionals, following local clinical guidelines for intradermal and subcutaneous injections.
Check the packaging integrity and expiry date before use; do not use if the package is damaged or expired.
Open the sterile package, maintaining aseptic technique when handling the syringe and needle.
If the needle is supplied detached, securely attach the 26G x 3/8" needle to the central slip tip before drawing up medication.
Draw up the required volume of tuberculin or other prescribed medication, removing air bubbles according to clinical best practice.
Perform the intradermal or subcutaneous injection using the appropriate technique (e.g., shallow angle for intradermal injection) and in an appropriate anatomical site as per guidelines.
Do not recap the needle after use unless local policy allows and a safe recapping technique is employed.
Immediately dispose of the entire syringe and needle as a single unit into an approved sharps container after use.
Single use only – do not reuse, resterilise or share between patients.

Contraindications

Do not use if the sterile package is open, torn or otherwise compromised.
Do not use in patients with known hypersensitivity to any of the device materials if clinically relevant (e.g., rare sensitivity to device plastics or lubricants).
Not intended for reuse or for any purpose other than administration of injectable medications or diagnostic agents as directed by a healthcare professional.

Adverse Effects

Local injection-site reactions including pain, erythema, bruising or minor bleeding associated with the injection procedure.
Risk of infection at the injection site if aseptic technique is not followed.
Potential for needle-stick injury to healthcare workers if safe handling and disposal procedures are not followed.
In very rare cases, hypersensitivity or allergic-type reactions related to administered medication or, rarely, to device materials.

Storage Conditions
