Insulin Syringe Comparison

Or why is it cheaper to buy another brand than co-pay for BD syringes?

There are three main brands of insulin syringes: BD, Kendall Monoject, and Easy Touch. Many of the injection accessories, such as Inject-Ease or Autoject seem to be designed with the BD syringes in mind. So if you use these devices, you should pay attention to the construction of the syringes of other brands you may purchase. The good news is that online customers report that the Easy Touch brand syringes are the same shape and can be used with these devices.

Other important points to consider:

• How easy is it to get air bubbles out of the syringe
• How easy is it to get the cap off the needle?
• Is the manufacturing quality, ensuring both ease of use and exact dosage?

We hope you find the following information helpful in shopping for insulin syringes online:

	Online reviews are very strong about BD syringes. BD has an international reputation to uphold, and they supply hospitals the world round. That said, the biggest complaint is price. You pay for the extra quality assurance and engineering that goes into these products.	Online reviews of EasyTouch syringes are generally positive, especially since pricing is often less than the insurance copayment for BD syringes. However, the complaints that show up seem to indicate inconsistent quality assurance. You save at the expense of every single syringe being useful.	Not many online reviews available for this product. While Kendall is a trusted manufacturer for many products, this line of syringes is not compatible with the devices such as Inject-Ease or Autoject.
