INSULIN 29G 1/2INCH T0 5/8

in europe there are no inches, we have another system (you remember the dialogue in the movie pulp fiction, wehn travolta explains the differences in fast food burger names )

1 inch = 2,54 cm

so 1/2 inch = 1,27 cm = 12,7 mm

so my needles are 1/2 inch long. they have the size name 39G.

that is what you halve told.

so these needles are ok to inject hgh subcutan.

must stick the needle into the body vertical or diagonal to get it subcutan????
