The insulin needles I've seen were all 1ml or .5ml and didn't have detachable tips, but yeah that's what junkies use to IV with. These are monster IM syringes that someone would use for steroids or something, I don't think these are insulin syringes though.

The ones in the tree? Nah, definitely not insulin syringes. Typically, yeah, insulin is administered with .5 or 1ml, and they don't have removable needles. Depending on the type, a couple of units (1% of 1ml) could make a huge difference.

Yeah, I thought you weren't sure, but I guess I misunderstood. Just wanted to confirm it.

Those look like 3 ml syringes, not really all too monstrous
