Children sick more often than adults, especially in the autumn-winter period. And it happens that some pills do not cure a child. In such cases, the doctor may appoint intramuscular injection at home. To be ready for this situation, learn how to make injections correctly.
You will need:
medical alcohol;

If the drug in liquid form, then the ampule is opened with a special file, which is usually in the package. We make it a small incision and carefully bow the tip of the ampoule. To protect your hands from cuts, you can wrap the ampoule with a piece of fabric.
3
The drug, which is in a dry form, is diluted with a solution for injection, which is also assigned by a doctor. In this case, you need 2 syringe: one for the preparation of injection, the other for the injection. In the first syringe, we gain a medical solution, piercing a rubber plug and introduce it to the bottle. We thoroughly mix the contents, let it dissolve 2-3 minutes, mix again.

We process this place with alcohol. The child's skin with his left hand is collected into the fold and we enter the needle at an angle of 90 degrees to a depth of 1 cm. The fold is dissolved. If you use a special children's syringe with a small and thin needle, the fold does not need to do.
