I have been using the same syringe for about 4-5 injections. they tend to get a little dull or want to bend. I do this for a couple of reasons see my post of 12/31. I put more than one full dose into a vial so that i have up to 6 shots at 1/3 dose in one vial so by reusing the syringe I feel very confident about having a full day in my pocket and I only have to carry one syringe with me. Until we hear different I do not see a problem since it's subcutaneous and not a vein or deep muscle. I do try to keep it clean with an alcohol swab when possible. It also conserves syringes which is not a cost factor but an rx consideration especially with a conservative doc or my mickey mouse insurance company pcs/humana no offense to mickey intended
