Injection Sites

Changing where you inject FUZEON on your body each time is an important way to lessen how bad your injection site reactions get. For more detailed information about each injection site, see Your Guide to Taking FUZEON.

About the Safety Syringe
  • There are two different-sized Safety Syringes, a 3-cc/mL (large) syringe and a 1-cc/mL (small) syringe
  • Before using the safety syringe, be sure the clear plastic capped needle is tight by pushing it down gently while twisting it clockwise [2A]
  • The safety syringes have a colored piece of plastic that is attached to the needle. This piece of plastic is a safety feature that covers the needle after use, lowering the risk of needlestick injuries [2B,2C]
  • Your healthcare provider may recommend other types of syringes for use with FUZEON
  • Never throw your used syringes into the trash. Put them in the sharps container
