supertired Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 Does anyone know if there are nickel-free SCIG needle sets? I’m trying to switch from IVIG to SCIG, but I’m allergic to nickel and it seems that the standard kits my home infusion company has all have nickel in them. Anybody have any knowledge here? zebra on top of zebra 🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 @supertired I would ask the infusion company about needles, they may be able to order specially made ones. I also use an infusion company for IVs and am allergic to silicon, which is in most supplies. When I asked they were able to send me silicon-free dressings.

The infusion company hasn't actually run into this before, and they don't know if they exist and/or where to get them. I'm sort of wondering if they may exist in Europe somewhere... their standards for "nickel-fee" everything seem to exist in more places than here in the U.S. I was sort of hoping someone else had run into this issue and figured out how to deal with it.
