Frequently Asked Questions
Do you carry various sizes of oral syringes for accurate liquid medication dosing?
▼
Yes. Our collection includes oral syringes in a wide range of sizes, including 0.5ml, 1ml, 2.5ml, 5ml, 10ml, and 20ml. These are designed to help carers and individuals deliver precise doses of liquid medication without spills or guesswork.
What is the difference between sterile and reusable dosing syringes?
▼
We offer both sterile dosing syringes, which are intended for single clinical use to ensure maximum hygiene, and reusable dosing syringes. The reusable versions are designed for repeated home use and are typically purple-coded to clearly distinguish them from intravenous syringes, preventing accidental misconnections.
Are your oral tip syringes suitable for children and adults with swallowing difficulties?
▼
Absolutely. Oral tip syringes are a practical and safe choice for administering medication to infants, children, and adults who may have difficulty swallowing pills or using standard spoons.
Can oral syringes be connected to standard hypodermic needles?
▼
No. Oral syringes are specifically designed with a wider tip that is incompatible with standard hypodermic needles. This is a critical safety feature (often further indicated by the purple colour coding) designed to prevent the accidental injection of oral medications into intravenous lines.
