Do Syringes and Supplies Come With My Order?

What's Included in Your Shipment

Every CoreAge Rx medication shipment includes:

  • Medication vial(s) — Your prescribed compounded medication
  • Syringes with attached needles — Enough for your full supply (typically 4 per vial for monthly dosing)
  • Alcohol swabs — For cleaning the vial stopper and injection site
  • Cold packaging — Ice packs to keep your medication at the proper temperature during transit
  • Dosing instructions — A card or insert with your prescribed dosage information

Do I Need to Buy Anything Else?

For most patients, everything you need is included. However, you may want to purchase:

  • A sharps disposal container — Available at most pharmacies for a few dollars. You can also use a thick plastic container (like a laundry detergent bottle) with a secure lid.

About the Syringes

  • CoreAge Rx typically includes insulin-type syringes (1mL with fine-gauge needles)
  • The syringe size is matched to your prescribed dose
  • If you receive syringes that seem too small or large for your dose, contact support before your next injection

Common Questions

"Why did I receive two different sizes of needles?" — Some shipments include both drawing needles (larger, for pulling medication from the vial) and injection needles (smaller, for the actual injection). Use the larger needle to draw and switch to the smaller one for injection.

"The needles seem to bend easily." — Insulin needles are very fine and can bend if inserted at an angle. Insert the needle straight in with steady pressure.

If anything seems missing from your shipment, contact support@coreagerx.com right away.
