hypodermic needles
Subcutaneous delivery tools
Hypodermic needles are hollow needles designed to pierce the skin for injecting substances into the body or withdrawing fluids like blood.
The term combines Greek roots meaning "under the skin." Medical professionals use them for vaccinations, drawing blood, and administering medications.
In common usage, hypodermic needle often refers to the entire syringe assembly: She's afraid of hypodermic needles.
