You should be able to buy B-D Plastipak insulin syringes at the drugstore without a prescription. They are normally .3cc, .5cc, or 1cc syringes with a 27, 28 or 29 guage needle. I'm not sure about the availability of 10cc syringes from a drugstore....those are normally what dopers use and may be harder to get for that reason.

I use insulin and as far as I know you need a perscribcion to get them. But you can try asking at the drugstore

In Australia you can simply buy syringes from the chemist, with or without needles. Good luck with your search.
