A label in the form of an accessory for a manufactured syringe that has graduations corresponding to volumes within the syringe, the label comprising a flexible generally rectangular elongate sheet of material with adhesive provided on an operatively back surface thereof, the sheet having two parallel major edges extending along the length of the elongate sheet, wherein a first scale is provided so as to be visible from an operatively front surface of the label along one of the major edges, the first scale being a volume indication scale calibrated to align with an existing volume indication scale on the syringe, and a second scale is provided adjacent the volume indication scale, the second scale being a scale that relates to a patient body weight scale, the patient body weight scale being calibrated so that a correct recommended dose as a volume of a medicament can be delivered to a patient of a given weight, either during administration of the medicament or during preparation of a mixture to be administered, by aligning a stopper of the syringe with the patient weight indicated by the patient weight scale, and wherein the label displays a type and a concentration of the medicament to be held by the syringe, a recommended dose of the medicament, and a recommended route of administration.
