Nipro vs Terumo

[kingjmack]

I know I may be overthinking this, but does anyone have experience with the Nipro brand? I've always used Terumo for the last ten years or so and this is a big change for me.

The needles get stuck alot for me (won't twist off) and the insulin ones suck because they hold too much residue at the tip of the barrel. Fine other than that.

to me it can down to the barrel width, went back to BD, the needles are better but a narrow barrel creates more pressure and that translated into PIP for me

Garbage. Plunger sticks, pins aren't sharp etc. BD and Terumo are way better.

I'll have to watch out for that because the needle on there is a 25g and I usually draw with a 20g

I've tried BD once. I may end up going back to them.

That's what I was afraid of. I will try a few, but if I start having issues, I will just throw them away and get some different ones.

What the hell happened to Terumo?

There is no way they went out of business with all of us buying them the last decade or two. All of the sudden they are (by all I can figure out via deductive reasoning) discontinuing the syringe or the brand all together.

BD wasn't as good as Terumo.....so for everyone to be flocking to BD it seems most are taking something they know is inferior over this new stuff that is apparently extremely inferior. I have not heard many good things about Nipro.

Nipro sucks!

Have been using nipro for a while. Honestly haven't had a problem. Used terumo before this.

Even though I've not used all my terumo stock, I decided to go ahead and pin today with the nipro because I was curious after reading peoples opinion on them. I will have to give them a thumbs up so far as I had no issues or problems. So far, so good!

I got rid of all my Nipros. Plunger sticking was my biggest complaint although I swear some of those needles were full as hell. My buddy uses them sometimes and it doesn't bother him as much as it does me. You might as well try them if you own them. You might like them. If not toss them out. I wouldn't recommend anyone to go out and buy them though.

Same here. Used all the ones mentioned, have had no issues with Nipro

I prefer B-D over all the others myself. Their Precision Glide pins are ultra sharp and virtually painless.

 

[heavyhitter]

I've been using Nipro for years and have never had an issue

 

[BEASTZ6]

Terumo for me. MedLab Supplies sells them.

I saw some of those precision glide pins, so I may try them next time.

Nipro is garbage.

 

[carlsjr]

I use nipro, no problem.

 

[pimpman]

Nipro sucks I hate them

 

[x1xjcramair1x1]

No problem with Nipro at all. I used Terumo up until about a year ago.

 

[Thor]

No problems..

with Nipro, but i still liked Terumo better, just seems better quality, Nipro sometimes is harder to push but thats about it.
