Directions

It is best to give your cat's PROZINC injections at feeding time or just afterward. It is also best to give the injections at the same time every day, because it will help your cat maintain the most stable blood glucose levels. This will be easier to do if you stick closely to your feeding schedule.

The easy way to give your cat an injection

Injecting your cat with PROZINC might sound scary and seem like a hard thing to do, but it's really not. Your veterinarian will show you how, and you can also follow the instructions below. With a little practice, PROZINC injections will become easy for you and your cat.

  1. Place your cat on a stable surface.
  2. Take a moment to pet your cat! It's best if you and your cat are calm while you give the injection.
  3. While you're petting your cat, gently pull up a fold of skin on your cat's neck or side. Don't use the same spot each time.
  4. Quickly insert the needle into the fold of skin. The insulin needle is very thin and sharp. It won't hurt your cat, especially if you insert it quickly.
  5. Pull the plunger back slightly to ensure no blood enters the syringe. If you see any blood in the syringe, discard it and start over with a new syringe.
  6. Gently push the plunger all the way in, pull out the needle, and reward your cat with more petting.
  7. Dispose of the syringe in a sharps container.
  8. Store PROZINC in the refrigerator. PROZINC should be stored at a temperature between 36° and 46° F.

If you are not sure the dose was completely delivered, it is important to not give another dose. It is better to err on the side of underdosing your cat with insulin, not overdosing.

About insulin

What insulin is, and what it does For some cats with diabetes, lifestyle changes such as an exercise plan and a special diet may be the only treatment they need. But most cats with diabetes also need insulin injections.

Insulin is important for regulating a cat's blood glucose (sugar), which is a critical metabolic process. Healthy cats can produce all the insulin they need on their own. Some cats with diabetes must get the insulin they need another way - through insulin injections.
