Diabetes HQ - Stress Less, Travel more

A topic I am often asked about is, how to dispose of sharps?

Sharps include:

• pen needles
• syringes
• lancet device (finger pricker)
• pump infusion sets (needle only section)

Important:

• to have a strong, light container with a secure lid to prevent them falling out and a needle stick injury occurring.

Places to dispose of needles:

• Most major airports and train have disposal units near or in the toilets.
• Major hospitals have sharps disposal units
• Pharmacies
• Doctors surgeries
