Subcutaneous drug administration is drug administration by injection into the subcutaneous area ie
in connective tissue or fat under the dermis.
Giving drugs that are done by injection under the skin can be done in the left upper arm or 1/3 part
of the shoulder, outer thigh, chest area and the area around the umbilicus (stomach). Subcutaneous
drug administration is carried out in an insulin administration program that is used to regulate blood
sugar levels.
This technique is used to refuse us who are injected by the body slowly and with long duration (slow
and continuous absorption).

INJECTION TECHNIQUE
Subcutaneous injection is done by injecting a needle at an angle of 45 degrees from the surface of
the skin. The skin should be slightly pinched to keep subcutaneous tissue away from muscle tissue.
The American Diabetes Association recommends that insulin be injected in the same area for one
week at a distance of each injection of 1½ inches [one segment of the finger] with subcutaneous
injection of insulin or just under the skin layer.
