No splitting these doses into thirds.

Sounds a bit like a TB test - prongs instead of 1 single needle (that piston & ram thing sounds pretty scary). You're certainly right about the split-dose thing. Is this the pharmacy Gods' way to ensure they get their money's worth?! I sure think so!

Injex 30 (http://www.injex.com/products/injex30.asp)

Nobody's tried this yet and reported back. Priced it last year.......if not covered by insurance, it'd run about $400 for the injector and enough hardware to cover about 100 shots.....w/o the meds.

The air-inject thing sounds cool and clean.......As long as they let you juice up doses Your way.

I have only one question. What the hell is a durg? ;;D

Quote:

The Intraject system is prefilled and disposable. It has two functional areas: the durg capsule and the actuator.
