Here are instructions on how to administer an insulin shot, courtesy of the American Academy of Family Physicians:
- Thoroughly wash your hands before handing any of the equipment.
- With an alcohol swab, clean the area of the skin to be injected, as well as the top of the insulin bottle.
- Pull back the syringe's plunger, insert it into the insulin bottle, and push the plunger so that air is injected into the bottle.
- With the bottle upside down, pull the plunger back again until the syringe is filled to the appropriate amount of insulin.
- If there are air bubbles, tap on the syringe with your finger, or inject the insulin back into the bottle and refill the syringe.
- Pinch a section of skin, usually on the thigh, arm or stomach, and inject the contents of the syringe at a 90-degree angle.
