Hello,br>I'd like to inform you that you are not permitted to re-re-re-re-re-re-re- Open the sharps container, empty it, and then re-use it. Fill the container to the brim, snap the lid shut for a permanent lock, and properly dispose of it according to your county's waste disposal regulations.
No, it's a small sharps container that can be placed on a dresser, counter, desk, or other similar location.
Dear Sir or Madam, Thank you for contacting us. Yes, you can buy a wall bracket for it; unfortunately, we don't sell them right now, but you can find them on Amazon.
It measures just under 6 1/2" in length. Something a little taller is what I'd recommend. My dog's insulin needles are short, so I use mine.

The image of the stopper to keep it from locking is shown in the Amazon description. This does not appear to be the case. Because the product lacks this stopper, it will lock into place if you slide it. It's a good safety measure, but there's no way to open it unless you use a flat driver or a spoon to remove the closure and replace it. To keep the closure from locking, I have to insert a safety pin into one of the holes through which it slides. There is still an opening, so it isn't completely safe.
This is a good container, but I'm new to giving intramuscular MIC shots at home (I think my DR has a lot of faith in me!). The instructions on the container were a little perplexing to me. I would suggest that the seller include a "white paper" in plain English with a diagram of what's what on the container, as they read like they were written for someone who gives shots in an office.
There's a chance it's got a flaw in it. Although the size appears to be suitable for home disposal of diabetic syringes and used lancets, it is smaller than expected and does not appear to be a full quart to the "Do Not Fill Above This Line. " I'll admit that I didn't take any measurements of the capacity. br>br>The sliding cover of the top opening has no lock, which could be a hazard if left in the presence of children or "curious adults. " "br>br>For smaller 100-unit diabetes syringes, the Unwinder and Recapper are useless. br>br>IF you don't have any small children, I would probably recommend this product.
First and foremost, why would they cover the hazard label with a sticker? I tried to take it off carefully, but it began to rip the most important part! This size was chosen to accommodate my microblading needles, which are still too small. This size was chosen so that I wouldn't have to deal with a large, bulky bag. I attempted to open it to see if my pens would fit inside, but the lid was closed. There isn't any way to open it. I've tried numerous times to open it, but it will not open.
I will reorder it again and again. I bought this container because of the slide open top, and I am very happy with it. I will reorder it again and again.
Every other day, I have to give my dogs subcutaneous fluids, and I don't want to waste the supplies. I've already used two of them and they're fantastic. When not in use, they can be stored in a bathroom cabinet, and I like the needle cap holder.
This was recently purchased and arrived in perfect condition. I've been diagnosed with gestational diabetes, and despite the small size of the container, I already know I won't be able to fill it before my baby is born. If all you want to do is test yourself, this is a great small container. If you give yourself insulin shots on a daily basis, I wouldn't recommend it. It would simply fill up too quickly, but it serves my needs perfectly!.
The top cover was already locked in place on both the original order and the replacement. I gave up and went to a local store to purchase a new container.
