Why is it needed?
The need of a hypodermic needle arises when the substance/treatment may not be absorbed by the digestive system

or if the substance needs to be instantly delivered into the body. The needle can be used for subcutaneous injection, intra muscular injection, or intravenous injection. Hypodermic needles are also used for injection into joints (intra-articular injection), CSF (spinal injection) or into the itself (intradermal injection).

All hypodermic needles used present day are meant for single use as they are difficult to decontaminate and need to be sharpened before reuse. Hence all hypodermic needles are disposable. Further re-using or sharing needles may lead to blood-borne diseases including AIDS and .

These needles are normally made of stainless steel, the end of the needle is bevelled to create a sharp pointed tip for easier penetration.
