Yes, it's generally important to remove air bubbles from intramuscular (IM) injection syringes before administering the injection. Air bubbles can cause discomfort, and in rare cases, they could potentially enter the bloodstream and cause an air embolism. It's a good practice to flick the syringe gently and push out any air bubbles before injecting to ensure a safe and comfortable procedure. Always follow proper injection techniques and guidelines .
