The subcutaneous injection is usually given in the thigh or the outer side of the upper arm or in the abdominal region. After cleaning the injection site (e.g. by rubbing with 70% alcohol), create a fold in the skin and insert the injection needle at an angle. Pull the syringe plunger back slightly. If blood appears, a blood vessel has been punctured. In this case, repeat the injection at a different site.

It is always recommended that you learn the injection technique from an experienced person.
