Very reliable syringes
By Cheri on Mar 28, 2020
This is the brand recommended by my vet. As with reviews of other products, there are times the needle bends, but that is very seldom. The cost is on par with products of a similar quality. While the extra plastic seems a bit overboard, I can appreciate the protection it can add.

Don’t always get this brand
By Jenncat13 on Mar 17, 2020
When you get the brand ordered, these are fantastic. 2/3 times I have gotten some off brand box of syringes instead of what’s advertised. Not happy about that.

Quality syringes
By Itchy on Feb 6, 2020
These syringes are the same high quality syringes that I was getting from my vet. I would reccommended this particular syringe over others I have used for my cat with diabetes.

Quality has changed!
By Momomom on Oct 28, 2019
I have been ordering these needles for my diabetic cat for over a year now, but noticed right away something was different with this last shipment. The quality/sturdiness of the needles has decreased (naturally the price stayed the same). You need to be much more careful (gentle) when drawing insulin from the vial as well as when giving the shot. Wish the change was communicated to recurring customers.

Needles drip
By 2siMom on Oct 28, 2019
The last 2 orders of Insulin Syringes have been different than originally received. We do NOT like them at all. The needle drips because the plunger is not as well fitting in the tube. We lose insulin with each injection. Would LOVE to go back to former ones

Review for: EXELINT insulin needles 1/2 ml U-40 29G 1/2
By Chris on Oct 1, 2019
Review for: EXELINT insulin needles 1/2 ml U-40 29G 1/2 This is the first time receiving this brand of insulin needle for my dog from Chewy. Originally I received VetOne and then Ultimed/Ulticare. This needle is so LOOSE to the point when you put your thumb on it to position your hand to put it into the skin, you will lose at least 5 units of insulin before you can even put the needle under the skin. Insulin winds up all over his fur. That results in having to use another needed to give the remaining amount and wasting a lot of insulin. (My dog uses 20 units 2X per day - 1 vial every 1.5 weeks). This brand should not be carried or used by pet parents. You will waste your medicine for Review for: EXELINT insulin needles 1/2 ml U-40 29G 1/2 This is the first time receiving this brand of insulin needle for my dog from Chewy.
