Can I inject twice with same needle (one session)

I've been injecting 250mg test cyp 2x a week. Have to go out of country for over a week, so plan on doing 1 injection of 500mg just before I go. But I'd rather inject into 2 muscles (half into each). Could I just draw up 2 ml, inject 1ml in one muscle, withdraw and then inject the remainder into a 2nd muscle without switching needles? I know I can, but is that safe? Im getting short on needle supply also, that's why I was wondering & 2ml seems like a lot into 1 muscle for me.

cheers :)
 
Needles are so cheap! Hell, I get them free from the needle exchange just on general principle! I like to get my taxes back any way I can!
 
Nope. Anytime the needle breaks the skin, or touches anything you need a fresh one. Just get more.

Please, I must disagree here. Ya know when someone aspirates, draws a little blood the pull out and re-stab w/blood and all. Since you swabbed the surface it is all still sterile as well as your own fresh blood.

Now if the same sterilization is done on both cheeks (where ever) the only thing is is your needle is just dulled a little. It is all still sterile and is NO problem.

Think these things out guys, then ask someone else and the reasons why they say what they say. I hope you understand how I have explained this thing out.

OP this was a good question and it is common for people to misunderstand facts about injections. Stay cool guys. :)

Everyone has told you correctly about 2mL etc... But I answered your Q's. If it is your preference to do 2 injections so be it. It is your choice.
