Also, my vet said to wipe the vial top with alcohol before each
injection into the vial. Michelle R. sent me home with another
sterilizing agent to wipe after the alcohol as well. I can't remember
what it's called, I think it begins with an "M" (the wording has run off
the plastic bag), I'll ask her next time I talk to her.

If you use one needle to mix, another to inject, and a third to draw
and inject the remainder, it should remain sterile. We have vials of
medicine we inject our dog with, and each vial lasts about 25
injections or so. It is supposed to remain sterile, because each
needle is sterile when it goes in to draw it. Of course, maybe it also
has preservatives in it that we don't know about.

Nina, are you sure you really have a way to keep the unused
sterile? I'd be
really worried about that.
