22 Gauge x 1" Monoject Soft Pack Hypodermic Needles with Polypropylene hub, 100/Box

A hypodermic needle is a thin, hollow, medical-grade needle designed for precise access to the body’s tissues, most commonly for: Injecting medications, vaccines, or anesthesia (subcutaneous, intramuscular, and intravenous injections) Drawing blood for diagnostic tests Aspirating fluids from the body

Hypodermic needles are uniquely engineered for skin penetration and injection or withdrawal of fluids, with sharp, beveled tips and medical-grade stainless steel. "Regular" sewing or tattoo needles are not suitable for medical injections or sample collection.

The word "hypodermic" comes from the Greek “hypo” (under) and “derma” (skin). It refers to anything administered or inserted beneath the skin—especially injections delivered through the skin using a needle.

Yes. An insulin needle is a specific type of hypodermic needle—typically shorter and finer for subcutaneous insulin injections, providing minimal pain and optimal absorption for diabetic patients.

It's called "hypodermic" because it is designed for delivering substances below the skin by piercing the epidermis and reaching subcutaneous tissues or veins.

Yes, hypodermic needles are legal in most countries for medical, laboratory, and approved personal uses. Local regulations may require a prescription or restrict sales to prevent misuse.

Most hypodermic needles are Luer lock or slip-tip compatible, making them fit with a wide range of standard medical syringes. Always check for compatibility before use.

Subcutaneous Injection (SC): Just under the skin (e.g., insulin, vaccines) Intramuscular Injection (IM): Into a muscle (e.g., antibiotics, vaccines) Intravenous Injection (IV): Directly into a vein (e.g., medications, fluids)

The 23G to 25G (gauge), 1-inch needle is the most common size for general injections. Needle size varies based on patient age, medication, and injection type.

No, tattoo needles are not the same as hypodermic needles. Tattoo needles are designed for pigment injection into the skin but are not suitable or sterile for medical use.

18G to 27G hypodermic needles with a tri-beveled, ultra-sharp stainless steel tip are among the sharpest needles, designed for smooth, pain-minimized penetration.

Today’s hypodermic needles are ultra-sharp and finely manufactured for comfort—many patients report minimal discomfort. Pain varies by gauge, length, and injection site.

The modern hypodermic needle was invented in the United Kingdom in 1853 by Dr. Alexander Wood and independently by Charles Gabriel Pravaz in France.

No. The hypodermic needle is the sharpened metal part attached to a syringe. The syringe is the barrel and plunger used to draw and inject fluid.

Policies vary by region. In some U.S. states and countries, a prescription is needed. In others, hypodermic needles may be sold over-the-counter for medical use.

Hypodermic needles are single-use and must be discarded after one use to prevent infection, blunting, and cross-contamination. Never reuse medical needles.

Yes, pen needles (such as those for insulin pens) are a specialized form of hypodermic needle, designed for use with injection pens for diabetes and other conditions.
