Question
- two common sites for insulin injection include __________ and __________. a abdomen (stomach area) and upper arms b abdomen (stomach area) and lower arms c upper arms and lower legs d upper arms and lower arms
Brief Explanations
Insulin injections are typically given in areas with a good blood supply and minimal muscle. The abdomen (stomach area) has a rich blood supply and is easy to access. The upper arms also have suitable subcutaneous tissue for insulin absorption. Lower arms, lower legs, and just using upper and lower arms (without specifying the abdomen) are not as commonly recommended primary sites as the abdomen and upper arms combination.
