I was wondering what is the proper way to inject drugs when giving a sub-q. I was taught to restrict to the line before the injection site at about 50% flow and then slowly inject the drug. I give him Cerenia every second day which stings them so I have to go really slow. When I let the hose flow 100% and inject the drug slowly he does not feel it and react. He also gets B12 which is red so I can see it is flowing into him and nothing is going back in the line. The sub-q kit I use has the injection port about 6" from the tip where the needle sits.
I guess the question would be do you restrict the flow before the injection site or do you let it flow free>
Thanks for any help.
