Depending on the type and amount of medication, IM injections usually require 2- to 3-mL syringes with 1- to 1-inch needles. Intradermal injections typically are given using 1-mL tuberculin syringes. Needles should be 25- to 26-G with a -inch intradermal bevel. Subcutaneous injections usually are given using 1- or 2-mL syringes with - to 1-inch needles.
