Why would you want to place it subcutaneously? 1cc is a fairly large volume and I'm sure it would be more uncomfortable than IM, not to mention the fact that it is only approved for IM administration.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
