Step 2

Prepare your syringe. Clean the medication vial’s rubber cap with an alcohol swab and wait for it to dry. Carefully remove the needle cap from your sterile syringe and draw air into the syringe that equals your prescribed medication dose. Insert the needle through the center of the rubber cap and turn the vial upside down. Gently push the air into the vial, then slowly pull back on the plunger to withdraw your prescribed dose.

Have questions? We’ve got answers.

Don’t worry – this is completely normal! Sometimes when your dose increases, you’ll actually inject a smaller amount because the medication solution is more concentrated. This means even though you’re injecting less liquid, you’re still getting a higher dose of the medication.

If you’ll be away when your next delivery is scheduled, please contact your care team at (832) 957-6200 to reschedule. We’ll work with you to set a delivery date that fits your schedule and ensures you don’t run out of medication.
