How should I prepare for an injection of RETACRIT?

•
Always keep an extra syringe and needle on hand.
•
Follow your healthcare provider's instructions on how to measure your dose of RETACRIT. This dose will be measured in Units per mL or cc (1 mL is the same as 1 cc). Use a syringe that is marked in tenths of mL (for example, 0.2 mL or 0.2 cc). Using the wrong syringe can lead to a mistake in your dose and you could inject too much or too little RETACRIT.

Only use disposable syringes and needles. Use the syringes and needles only one time and then throw them away as instructed by your healthcare provider.
