BD Glide Insulin Syringes with Ultra-Fine Needle U40 31G x 6mm
BD Glide insulin syringes from Becton Dickinson pair a permanently fixed 31 gauge x 6mm Ultra-Fine needle with a U40 (40 units/ml) barrel, built for people who take insulin at home. The BD lubrication layer on the needle glides through skin with less resistance, and the fine 31G gauge is designed to make each injection as comfortable as possible. The barrel has bold, easy-to-read U40 unit markings and a smooth, low-friction plunger that helps you dose precisely and inject at a steady, controlled pace. Each syringe is sterile, sealed and meant for single use.

How to Use
- Use only the insulin type, strength and dose your doctor has prescribed
- Check the pack is intact before opening – discard if torn or already opened
- Pinch a fold of skin and inject at the angle your doctor/nurse has shown you
- Rotate injection sites to avoid lumps or skin changes with repeated use
- Use once and discard immediately – never reuse or re-cap by hand
Precautions
- Single use only. Reusing blunts the needle and raises infection risk
- Never share syringes, even between family members – this can spread infection
- Confirm this is a U40 syringe matched to a U40 insulin strength before dosing
- Dispose of in a puncture-proof sharps container, never in household waste
- Do not use if packaging is damaged or the expiry date has passed
Storage
