Becton Dickinson (BD) has two kinds of safety-engineered insulin syringes. One is called BD Safety Glide and the other is the BD Safety-Lok. These kinds of syringes are made to protect those in the health care industry and related fields from accidents and injuries resulting from being punctured with the needle.

BD (Becton Dickinson) Pen Needles can help you feel different you use them. They are certainly different that other needles. Their technology is more modern, and the pen needles are made so that your insulin injections are not uncomfortable. The pen needle is also made where it slides right into your skin. When it’s removed, the needle is straight as a pin.

Becton Dickinson has made diabetic history on several firsts. This includes different innovations of insulin, the syringe and needles.

BD also makes products that provide comfort and simplicity to diabetic users. The BD Ultra-Fine Needle allows diabetics to administer insulin without a lot of issues or complications. This needle is a 30-gauge that is used in syringes. With this particular needle, the syringes come in three different sizes: 1cc, ½ cc and 3/10 cc.

Becton Dickinson is once again making inroads in the diabetic world with a 31-gauge 8mm BD Ultra-Fine II Short Needle. This needle is to be used with the BD Ultra-Fine Short Needle Insulin Syringes. This needle is believed to be the thinnest needle used for insulin in today’s market.

More diabetics are using alternate ways to administer insulin. The original syringe is not the instrument of choice anymore. Insulin pens are compact and easy to use. They look like writing pens with ink cartridges. The difference is that instead of the ink cartridge, you’re using insulin instead. These instruments can be discarded after use.
