Kraupners just delivered Lupron 2 ml.. My nurse gave instructions to draw up 40 units of it..
Looking at the needles I can't figure out how much to draw up!
Now I'm freaking out
Please help

Re: Help! Trigger tonight w/ques
I'm not sure which syringe you have but 1cc= 1 ml or 1 cc=100 units

Re: Help! Trigger tonight w/ques
Lupron isn't a trigger, is it? It suppresses ovulation. Are you sure that's what you're taking?
Do you have the insulin type syringe (mine has an orange cover) that has numbers going up by ten? I take 20 units per night so I draw up to the 20 mark. If you're supposed to take 40 units, I'd draw up to the number 40. If you're really unsure, call the doctor's office. I'm sure an oncall nurse can help! Good luck!!

Lupron can be used as a trigger shot and is often used actually to prevent hyperstim.
If you have the 1 ml syringe go to .4 if you have the 1 cc/100 unit insulin syringes you can go to 40.

Yes, this... and plunge slowly, so you don't get an injection site reaction. The Kraupner's driver must have hit your house right after mine, lol.
