I told my doc i kept bees and he gave me a prescription. 

I do recommend reading the directions before using them, as my husband decided to see how long the needle was accidently stuck himself in his tumb.  To make a long story short he had to see a vein specialist and take injections in his stomach to open his veins in his tumb or he could have lost it.  So i recommend to read the directions.  Unfortunatly during his whole time in the doctors office i was laughing

I've seen an accidental injection into the hand by a young girl who thought she was using her practice pen.  But after review of the literature the doctor was confident there were no documented problems from injection into the hand, and after a while the colour started to return to normal.  Here is one such study.
