Insulin Syringes for Cats: 1ml ProZinc Syringes
The 1ml insulin syringes for cats are specifically designed for use with ProZinc Insulin, ensuring accurate and convenient administration of your cats's ProZinc 40 IU/ml suspension for injection. These cat-friendly ProZinc insulin syringes have been expertly calibrated to deliver the correct dosage of medication, while prioritizing your cat's comfort and ease of use.
Prozinc syringes are designed to deliver measured doses of insulin subcutaneously, directly into the fatty tissue under the skin. Each syringe has a 1ml capacity and is marked with fine increments to allow for accurate measurement of the prescribed insulin dose. The clear barrel provides visibility of the insulin, making it easy to check for air bubbles and ensure proper filling.
The syringes are equipped with ultra-fine, short needles designed to minimise discomfort during injection. A smooth plunger movement ensures controlled delivery, reducing the risk of under- or overdosing. Each syringe is sterile and intended for single use to maintain hygiene and prevent contamination.
Using the correct syringe for insulin administration is essential, as different types of insulin require syringes with specific calibrations. Prozinc syringes are designed for use with Prozinc insulin, ensuring compatibility and accuracy in dosing.
Prozinc insulin is a veterinary-specific insulin used to treat diabetes in cats and dogs. It is a protamine zinc insulin suspension that provides long-lasting glucose regulation. Unlike human insulin formulations, Prozinc insulin has a unique concentration and requires syringes calibrated specifically for its administration.
Using non-compatible syringes can result in incorrect dosing, which may lead to fluctuations in blood sugar levels. Inadequate dosing can cause hyperglycaemia, while excessive dosing may result in hypoglycaemia, a life-threatening condition. Prozinc syringes are designed to match the concentration of Prozinc insulin, ensuring accurate and consistent dosing.
Veterinarians prescribe Prozinc insulin based on a pet’s weight, blood glucose levels, and response to treatment. Precise administration using the correct syringe is essential to achieving stable glucose control. Regular monitoring and proper injection technique help reduce the risk of complications and improve the pet’s overall quality of life.
Using Prozinc Syringes for Insulin Injections
Administering insulin requires careful preparation and technique to ensure effectiveness and safety. Before using a Prozinc syringe, the insulin vial should be gently rolled to mix the contents without creating air bubbles. The syringe is then used to draw the prescribed dose, ensuring accurate measurement before injection.
The injection site is typically located in the loose skin over the pet’s shoulders or along the flank. Subcutaneous injections are administered at a slight angle, ensuring the insulin reaches the correct tissue layer. Proper handling of the syringe and needle is important to minimise discomfort and prevent contamination.
After use, syringes should be disposed of safely in a sharps container, as recommended by a veterinarian. Reusing syringes is not advised, as this can lead to contamination and reduced needle sharpness, making injections more uncomfortable for the pet.

Prozinc Insulin for Cats and Dogs - 10ml
Prozinc Insulin for Cats and Dogs
Prozinc Insulin is a vet-prescribed insulin used to manage diabetes mellitus in cats and dogs. Prozinc contains protamine zinc insulin, an intermediate-acting insulin derived from recombinant human insulin. Prozinc is specifically formulated to help regulate blood glucose levels and reduce the symptoms associated with diabetes in pets. Prozinc is most commonly prescribed for cats with diabetes mellitus, but it may also be used in dogs under veterinary direction.
Prozinc helps stabilise glucose levels by mimicking the action of naturally produced insulin in the pancreas. The use of Prozinc requires a vet’s diagnosis and ongoing monitoring to ensure proper dosage and effectiveness.
How Prozinc Insulin Works
Insulin is a hormone that plays a critical role in regulating glucose levels in the bloodstream. In healthy animals, insulin is naturally produced by the pancreas and helps transport glucose from the blood into the body’s cells, where it is used as a source of energy. In diabetic pets, the body either does not produce enough insulin or is unable to use it effectively. This leads to elevated blood glucose levels, which can result in various health complications over time. Prozinc contains protamine zinc recombinant human insulin, designed for a prolonged effect. Once injected subcutaneously, Prozinc gradually releases insulin into the bloodstream, helping to control glucose levels throughout the day. Its intermediate duration of action allows for fewer injections compared to shorter-acting insulins. This makes it a suitable option for ongoing diabetes management in both cats and dogs when prescribed and supervised by a veterinarian. Each dose of Prozinc is tailored to the specific needs of the pet, based on factors such as weight, blood glucose readings, and clinical signs. It is important that pet owners closely follow veterinary instructions and monitor their pet’s condition regularly.
