My treatment involves an injection, is there anything I need to do ahead of my first visit?
All you need to do ahead of your first visit is get your sharps bin and any other information received with your first delivery to hand. Alternatively, the clinician will bring those items. If your treatment is to be given by the clinician, they will administer the injection. At the end of the visit, the clinician will talk you through the next steps, your future treatment plan and will stay with you for at least 30 minutes after the injection to check for any side effects.
