    Default Dosing Syringe

    Last night, Stosh was kind enough to do up a photo with arrows and amounts when we tried to explain a certain amount of cc's of meds.
    I thought it was so impressive and helpful, so I decided to make it a sticky.... Thank you so much Stosh!!!!!

    NOT being ACCURATE...is very dangerous to our beloved Fuzz-heads.

    When in Doubt...POST a question...OR P.M. a member...or pick up the phone...

    But DON'T Dose unless your are POSITIVE of the Meds and the Amount !!!!

    Another way to look at is - money.

    If 1mL(cc) was a $1 bill and someone were to give you change...


    10 cents (dime) would be 0.10mL

    1 cent (penny) would be 0.01mL

    5 cents (nickel) would be 0.05mL

    25 cents (quarter) would be 0.25ML

    math examples:
    10 cents x 10 = $1; 0.10mL x 10 = 1mL

    25 cents x 4 = $1; 0.25mL x 4 = 1mL

    1 cent x 100 is $1; 0.01mL x 100 = 1mL
