5.0 out of 5 stars Needles should be the least of your worries, June 4, 2006

As a "new" insulin-dependent diabetic, lots of things have to change: your diet, exercise, no more spontaneous dinners after work without insulin, etc. The slight pain and weirdness of injecting oneself goes away, but the logistics of having a medical equipment inventory does not.

While insulin syringes are perfectly safe after use (it's an intramuscular injection with no blood going into the needle), they are medical waste and a worry (what if kids play with them ?, what if junkies go through my garbage at night ? -- paranoid stuff like that).

A needle-clipper like this eliminates this worry. The clipped needles stay in the handle of the clipper until you get 1500, then you can dump it into a Sharps container. The syringe body is just a plastic tube without its needle: toss it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great item for diabetics., September 11, 2006

It is difficult in this day and time to dispose of used hypodermic syringes. If they are put in the trash after use, users of illegal drugs could take them out and reuse them. (Leaves me thinking I might be contributing to the drug problem.) Someone could be stuck or scratched by the needles. I do not have any contagious diseases but they would not know that and might suffer anguish unnecessarily.

However with the needle clipper, just inject the dose of insulin, clip off the needle from the disposable syringe, and dispose of the syringe in the trash. Safe and easy!

It had become a problem finding somewhere to dispose of the syringes with the needle attached.

Thank you.

This needle clipper is easy to use even for those with arthritis in their hands. It quickly clips the needles from the used syringe and stores them in the attached container; I no longer have to worry about anyone taking used syringes from my garbage on pick up day.
