Understanding your insulin syringe
Measuring your dose
Insulin syringes are used for subcutaneous injections. They are marked in Units on the insulin syringe barrel (see illustration). Insulin syringes facilitate the precise measurement of tiny amounts of liquids which are ideal for medications such as insulin that require small and accurate dosing. Unit marks are also expressed in mL’s and can be interchangeably referenced. A prescriber may write a prescription in Units or in mL’s.
Within the amount of liquid is the prescribed mg dosage of your medication (see mg chart). Milligrams (mg) is not an amount of liquid, but rather the amount of drug that is within. The conversion between units and milligrams varies depending on the concentration of the product being used.
What can I expect?
You may experience mild tingling or dryness during the first 1–2 weeks. This is normal and typically resolves as your skin adjusts.
Most users begin to notice improvement within 3–4 weeks, with continued benefits over time. Read more about what to expect here.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Rosacea Treatment?
It’s a dermatologist-formulated gel that combines four clinically backed ingredients—Azelaic Acid (5%), Ivermectin (1%), Metronidazole (1%), and Niacinamide (4%)—to reduce redness, bumps, inflammation, and flare-ups associated with rosacea.
How long does it take to see results?
Most people begin noticing improvements in redness and texture within 3–4 weeks. Results continue to build with consistent daily use, with clearer, more balanced skin often visible by week 6.
Is Rosacea Treatment safe for sensitive skin?
Yes—this formula is designed for rosacea-prone and sensitive skin. However, as with any topical treatment, start with a patch test and follow provider instructions.
Can I use this gel with other skincare or makeup?
Yes—apply the Rosacea Treatment to clean, dry skin first, and allow it to fully absorb before layering moisturizers, sunscreen, or makeup. If you’re using other prescription products, consult your provider to avoid potential irritation.
What will it feel like when applied?
Some users may experience a mild tingling or dryness during the first few uses. This is normal and typically fades as your skin adjusts. Most people find the gel lightweight and non-irritating.
Do I need to keep using it to maintain results?
Yes. Like most rosacea treatments, continued use is important for keeping symptoms under control. If you stop treatment, redness and flare-ups may gradually return. Your provider can help adjust your routine based on your skin’s response over time.
