duration of the treatment. It is administrated
subcutaneously and we recommend that the

syringe from the refrigerator for it to warm up. Make sure
the liquid is clear and free from particles.

!

the syringe and remove the protective cap from the
needle.

tapping on the upper half of the syringe.Then hold the
syringe vertically and the needle upwards, and gently
push the plunger upwards.
Keep pushing the plunger until the amount of EPO in the
syringe is as prescribed.

5. Clean the skin at the injection site using an alcohol wipe.
Form a skin fold by pinching the skin between thumb and
forefinger.

!

6. Insert the needle into the skin fold with a quick, firm
action. Inject the EPO solution.Withdraw the needle and
apply pressure over the injection site with a dry, sterile
pad.
7. Finally lay the syringe into the container..

The most suitable places for injection are the front of the thights and the
abdomen except for the area around the.navel.
It is better to change the injection site every day to avoid the risk of soreness
at any one site.
