Draw up the regular insulin first. You always want to go from clear to cloudy. Also, you do not want the NPH insulin mixing into the regular insulin, therefore the regular insulin should be drawn up before the NPH (long-acting) insulin.

Can regular insulin and nph be mixed together?

Yes, regular insulin (short-acting) and NPH insulin (intermediate-acting) can be mixed together in the same syringe. However, it is important to follow proper mixing techniques and dosage guidelines as instructed by your healthcare provider to ensure accurate dosing and effectiveness of the insulin.

You have a 3ml syringe and need to give 0.05cc of insulin How much do i draw up in units?

If you use a 1 ml insulin syringe how many units would you draw up?

In a 1 mL insulin syringe, the markings typically represent units of insulin, not milliliters. The number of units you would draw up in a 1 mL insulin syringe depends on the concentration of the insulin you are using. Common insulin concentrations are 100 units/mL and 50 units/mL. If you are using insulin with a concentration of 100 units/mL and you want to draw up a certain number of units, you simply draw up that number of units on the syringe. For example, if you want to draw up 10 units of insulin, you would fill the syringe to the 10 unit mark on the syringe. If you are using insulin with a concentration of 50 units/mL, then each unit on the syringe represents 2 units of insulin. So, to draw up 10 units of insulin in this case, you would fill the syringe to the 5 unit mark. Always make sure to use the correct insulin concentration and syringe to accurately measure and administer your insulin dose. If you are unsure about the concentration or how to use the syringe, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional or pharmacist for guidance.

What will happen if you draw cloudy insulin up first then clear insulin and give to a patient?

The "cloudy" insulins are long-acting, while the "clear" insulins are rapid or short-acting. Drawing up the clear insulins first prevents the vial of short-acting insulin from being contaminated with a long-acting insulin.
