-See the insulin is not spoiled or expired, or been open for 28 days
-Clean with an alcohol swipe the top of the vial
-Take off the cap of the syringe
-Pull the number of units to insert this air on the vial
-After inserting the air, place the vial upside down taking it with your hands
-Keep the needle on the vial and charge the units you need
-If you have air bubbles, put the insulin back into the vial and repeat the charging
-You can also gently tap the syringe to make the air bubbles out
**Bubbles will not harm you but those will take place of the total of units you need**
