How to fill out self-administered injectable and specialty:

1. Gather all the necessary materials: This may include the injectable medication, syringe, needle, alcohol swabs, and any other supplies indicated in the instructions or prescribed by the healthcare professional.
2. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water: This step helps prevent any potential contamination during the injection process.
3. Prepare the medication: Follow the instructions provided with the injectable medication to properly prepare it for administration. This usually involves removing any protective caps or seals and mixing the medication if required.
4. Cleanse the injection site: Use an alcohol swab to clean the area where the injection will be administered. Allow it to dry completely before moving on to the next step.
5. Assemble the syringe and needle: Attach the needle to the syringe according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure a secure connection to prevent any leakage during the administration process.

7. Administer the injection: Find the designated injection site as instructed by your healthcare professional. With a steady hand, insert the needle at the prescribed angle and depth into the skin. Slowly and steadily, push the plunger to inject the medication.
8. Remove the needle and safely dispose of the syringe: Once the medication is fully administered, withdraw the needle from the skin. Properly dispose of the used syringe and needle in a sharps container or according to local regulations.
9. Observe for any adverse reactions: After the injection, pay attention to any immediate or delayed side effects. Contact your healthcare provider if you experience any concerning symptoms.
