ABCD, as instructed, in the abdomen. The "Patient Dosing Instruction Sheet" does say "Subcutaneously inject the 1½ mL into your abdomen. Rotate the injection site as instructed by your Physician and detailed below."
I appreciate, the difference between "subcutaneous" and comments made on Feb 18 about "intramuscular". The needle used into the body (vs when withdrawing the "study drug")is a 25 Gauge, 5/8 inch needle . . . the same needles I used thru December 1979, with U-40 and U-80 insulins.
Hope this answers your question.
