Product Description:

Solutions for Pets With Diabetes:
Ulti Med, Inc. has developed the UltiCare U-40, a syringe that is specifically designed for U-40 insulin prescribed by veterinarians for pets.

About Pets and Diabetes
Diabetes in small animals (cats and dogs) is a growing animal health care concern. Lifestyles of pets generally mirror the lifestyles of their owners. America's urban leisure lifestyle (which is stated as a factor in the increasing incidence of diabetes in people) is most likely the leading cause of diabetes in pets.

Diabetes is a complex metabolic condition which results in the inability of the body to properly maintain and use carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It is a life long condition that requires education and awareness for proper treatment.

Factors leading to diabetes are:
•   Diets too rich in fats and carbohydrates
•   Obesity or general poor fitness
•   Less exercise
•   Increased age

Although no single factor is a cause by itself, a continuing combination of these factors is usually present when diabetes is diagnosed.

A contributing factor is the rise of better health care and increased treatment for pets. Historically, when animals became ill, they were often without the medical attention we enjoy as humans. Today, that has changed with many pet owners providing the same level of treatment and medical diagnostics we provide to our families.

Veterinary medicine is attacking this condition as aggressively in pets as their counterparts attack diabetes in humans. Diet changes and increased activity, followed with insulin injections (as a last resort) are the most likely measures taken. With small animals, however, it is very difficult to achieve the proper dosage with U-100 insulin, the insulin primarily used by people in the United States.

Many veterinarians are now prescribing Protamine & Porcine Zinc Insulin (PZI & Vetsulin) known as U-40. Though not a diluted form of insulin, U-40 is weaker, thus allowing for larger, more easily measurable doses for small animals.

Today, many people are treating their pets for diabetes using Protamine & Porcine Zinc Insulin (PZI & Vetsulin). Usually designated as "U-40 Insulin", U-40 differs from the standard U-100 Insulin that is prescribed for people with diabetes in the way that it is measured. The "U" refers to actual "units" of active insulin. "Units" are a standard measurement system for many drugs.

U-100 insulin has 100 units of active insulin in each milliliter (ml) of liquid.
U-40 insulin has 40 units of active insulin in each milliliter (ml) of liquid.

Most commercially available insulins are U-100 and the syringes available at most pharmacies are U-100 syringes. U-100 syringes are specially designed to provide the proper dose of U-100 insulin.

UltiCare U-40 syringes are designed to provide the proper dose of U-40 insulin. This means that measurements of one unit of the UltiCare U-40 syringe will give you precisely one unit of U-40 insulin. Using the UltiCare U-40 syringe means that you can fill the syringe in the normal manner and do not need to rely on any conversion tables.

Your veterinarian has prescribed the proper dosage of U-40 Insulin for your pet. UltiCare has provided the proper syringe to deliver that dosage.

Because U-40 is weaker, larger volumes are required giving the ability for more precise measurement of the medication. Because U-40 and U-100 are not equivalent in terms of dosage, a specialized U-40 syringe was developed by UltiMed and a leading pharmaceutical company. This syringe allows for more simplified and accurate dosing of U-40 medications, without complicated mathematical conversions, giving diabetic pet owners an ease-of-use and level of accuracy that had not been available until now.

I was paying $39 dollars for 1 box of 100 U-40 syringes from my vet. I am able to purchase 200 syringes (2 boxes) for $48 from PetsTruly.com. That`s a great deal.

Recieved quickly, and without the need of a prescription from the vet. Also, sent to an FPO address and that doesn`t always happen. I`m very happy with your product, service, and savings over what my Japanese vet charges for needles. I`ve given your information to the American vet on base to give to his patients.

I bought the reli(On syringes (for humans) at wall- mart box of 100 filled up the U-40 to the amount I was giving my dog then pulled the plunger out of the reli(On and put the water from the U40 in it and that give me the right amount.the U-40 syringes were costing me aroung $43.00 at the vet for 100 and now I pay $12.00 for 100 at was-mart

Price is very reasonable. But, the plunger of syringe seems to be somewhat harder to push(doesn`t slide well) Previously using vetsulin. I noticed some of the insulin did not come all come out of this syringe???

I wish you had not just the syringes but the insulin as well. Funny how you get the same insulin as humans but pay 3 times the amount for it or MORE! Your service is great!

Very accommodating.Gave me a phone call to answer a question I had asked online.Product was much cheaper than I could get from my local vet.I would suggest adding instructions and helpful hints on giving the shots. I found helpful advise on Vetsulin.com.Explain how important it is not to use the needles more than once.Saving a little money is not worth hurting your pet.Thanks for your good service!

The quality of these syringes were the same as I purchased from the Vet; however, they were nearly 50% cheaper. Being able to purchase from you allows me to keep my diabetic cat as it costs less for wonderful quality.

I have been giving my dogs shots for years and this is the best syringe I have used. I used to buy them from the vet and he quit getting them and sold me a box and it felt like I was hurting them when the needle went into the skin so I did my research to find these needles again and are also cheaper that the cheap ones at the vet. I like saving money!

Exactly what I`ve been getting from the Vet but sooo much more reasonable. I have a diabetic dog and this disease is very costly, so I am so appreciative of this web site. I received the syringes in a timely manner. Absolutely will continue to order from this site.

I have two cats that are diabetic, and I have been purchasing boxes of U-40 insulin syringes from Petstruly for at least four years now. Having thoroughly done my `homework` in advance of any purchase of diabetic supplies, I can tell you that the Ulticare U-40 syringes are the best on the market. And, I really appreciate being able to use PayPal on Petstruly`s website to pay for my purchase! The entire experience of dealing with Petstruly is refreshingly positive, and I will continue to make them my only source for these quality insulin syringes. Thank you, Petstruly!

Your service and prices were the best. I didn`t have any problem with the website, very easy to use. I received my order in great shape and very quick. The syringes are the best I have found on the market. Numbers are very easy to read. I am so glad I found this website. Your product makes it very easy to give my dog his insulin, little to no pain. Thank you for making a bad situation a little easier.

Your service and prices are the best I have seen! I agree with your other clients who have commented...the cost is almost 1/2 of the vet cost and using 2 of these syringes daily can certainly rack up the costs. I also appreciate the speed of which my order was received. At this point..count me in as a loyal customer! Thanks!

The UltiCare 29 guage needles are so fine that they are a breeze to administer the dose with little to no pain for my 13 yr.old cat. I give him a few treats at the same time and it`s over before he knows it happened. It`s the best product I have found to give a shot of insulin! Prices are wonderful too!

I have always had a great experience with PetsTruly. The product is great, secure checkout with PayPal, and fast shipping.

I began buying these syringes from another online company, but soon discovered these WITHOUT the large plastic container that dispenses them, an unnecessary waste of resources, and more money! So, by buying these, I am cutting my costs and saving (plastic/oil) resources, and I don`t have the bulk of disposing the large container. There are no children in our household to worry about the danger of spent needles. These work great for us!

These syringes are the exact same ones that I get from my vet, but at almost half the price ^_^ Dealing with a diabetic cat is very expensive so any time you can save money it makes life a lil easier -_^
