Anyway I only had insulin syringes I CC 29 gauge by 1/2 length. Admittidly the bigger and longer needles are better to use for B-12 as it doesn't seem to leave a knot or get hard in the area of use. The jest is the insulin needle I was using broke off and is still in my very lower back area off to the left side. A little below that the tissue 1/2 deep is somewhat hard and difficult pushing the B-12 in.

Teva glucophage metformin odor problem ## What type of odor are you referring to? Something from the person being treated with it or from the medication? If it is from the person being treated, it could be Lactic Acidosis, which can be quite dangerous and they should see their doctor immediately or go to the nearest emergency treatment facility. If you are referring to the medication itself, then it is normal for it to have an odor. Depending on the manufacturing process, it can be much more noticeable from some tablets.
