Pre-Injection Swab (Alcohol Wipe) by CARE GROUP VENTURES

A low-cost, worthwhile measure if you need to inject yourself on a fairly frequent basis e.g. diabetes. These swabs are single use and come in standard paper/foil packages that are easy to tear open.They're pretty small so not too much waste yet big enough to clean a patch of skin ready for an injection. Using these swabs to clean the site of an injection before inserting the needle has helped reduce rashes and problems with the injection. Well worth the small amount per swab. Highly recommended.

Being phobic of needles I never intended to use these swabs for their original purpose. Instead I bought them to put in my first-aid pack for sterilizing small wounds among other things. Since receiving them I've found a multitude of uses for them including removing sticky residue, sterilizing hands or utensils before eating while out and about, cleaning the lenses of my glasses, and cleaning my phone and other gadgets. Each swab is individually packaged (as pictured) and takes up very little space. When unfolded, each swab is only about "2 by "2 which I've found suitable for my purposes. Because they are alcohol swabs they do have a very strong alcohol smell which could be off putting to some people. However, the benefit of using alcohol is that it evaporates extremely quickly, meaning that lenses and screens aren't left wet or smeary. With such a multitude of uses, it's always helpful to have a box of these around the house and I can heartily recommend them. At such a reasonable price one can't really go wrong.

After being questioned by the lady in the local Boots as to why I needed the product (Maybe she thought I was an injecting street drug user). She then said they didn't have any in stock and would have to order them. In fact I wanted them to use in conjunction with the toenail infection product 'Curanail' who have stopped supplying them with their product. Cheaper and better service from 'carewearclothing' through Amazon.

They do what they are supposed to do but the only problem is that they are not easy to open.

It serves the purpose. I use it to clean my glasses and smart phone.

I ordered these alchohol swabs to clean my earring posts and they are perfect - they arrived quickly and the seller had sensibly sent them with the box flattened so they would fit through the letterbox, and it only took a second to put it back together and put the wipes in, which is great if they are delivered when you are out. The wipes are little squares and are exactly what I needed, and I couldn't believe the value - I haven't been able to get any in the shops so I am very pleased indeed and would recommend them. I don't have to use them for injection purposes, but they are just the same as the ones the doctor uses so there is no reason why they shouldn't be perfect for that too.

I NEED TO BUT MORE THEY GO SO QUICK IF YOU HAVE TO INJECT AS I DO AND NEED GOOD CLEANERS THESE ARE THE JOB I MUST BUY MORE AS I AM RUNNING AND I WILL BE INJECTING FOR LIFE SO I MAY AS WELL BUY A LIFE TIME SUPPLY TRUST THIS SELLER ON TIME AND A FAB PRICE TO.

Thought these were good value, but when I started to use them half of them were completely dry and of no use whatsoever. Contacted the seller and all they said was to contact the manufacturer whose name should be on the box. It's not, just a telephone number - and anyway it is the sellers responsibility and they basically don't want to know. DO NOT BUY THESE - A WASTE OF MONEY. Buy a reputable brand such as Sterets, they work out cheaper as you can use them all.
