The angle of insertion for a subcutaneous injection is typically 45 to 90 degrees, depending on the thickness of the patient's skin and subcutaneous tissue. For thinner individuals, a 45-degree angle may be more appropriate, while a 90-degree angle can be used for those with more subcutaneous fat. It's important to ensure that the needle is inserted into the subcutaneous tissue to avoid intramuscular injection. Always follow specific guidelines or protocols for the best practice in your setting.
