The same way you read ANY syringe. From www.wikipedia.com (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syringes), if you click on the image of the 10ml syringe, you'll see the markings on the barrel. You measure the units of fluid from the needle side back to the plunger - so as you pull back the plunger you draw in "x" ml's of fluid as marked from the needle back. Standard safety procedures surrounding the use of a syringe should always be followed, and in no way is this short answer a full and complete explanation of how to correctly/safely use a syringe.

First flip the syringe upside down and tap it to release all air. The numbers on the side of the syringe apply to the amount of medicine inside it.

How do you read a 31 gauge syringe?

A 6 cc syringe typically has a series of marks to indicate different amounts. Each cc is marked with a line and a number to indicate the amount. Halfway in between will be a relatively large line that may be marked, indicating half a cc. In between the half mark and the whole mark are other lines, usually indicating a quarter cc, but sometimes it is done in tenths instead. Read the number from the tip of the syringe, where the needle goes, up to the other end to see how much is in the syringe.


What can you mix children's Tylenol with so that your toddler will drink it?

The best way to get medicine into a baby or toddler is to use an oral syringe. You suck up the proper amount of medication by looking at the markings on the side of the syringe. Slide the tip of the syringe along the inside of the child's cheek until you can squirt the medicine far enough back so they can't spit it out easily, If you squirt it straight into the mouth, that's exactly what they do - go between the teeth and cheek instead. Have a small glass of their favorite drink handy and give it to them as soon as they swallow the medication.
