Main cast member Klaus is a drug addict, and especially in early scenes and episodes can be seen shooting up. There are also two instances of needles used in a medical setting, once in episode 4 when Luthor is explaining his new body, and again in episode 9 when Allison is being operated on.

Usually you can hear when the doctors will use a needle/syringe/IV etc and there’s time to look away. But there’s a very abrupt scene with a needle stuck in someone’s arm in S15 ep 14 around 22 minutes in. Blood starts to pour from under a door, look away then

One of the characters' executions heavily features needles, and it has been implied by many fan theories that the entire sequence is a metaphor for a lethal injection.

Can't recall the specifics regarding medical needles, though drug use is a major theme, but there's a running gag in season 6 about people getting stabbed by a baby porcupine's needles, and the resulting stab wounds are at one point mistaken for drug needles.

A character rips out his IV when everyone is arguing about what to do close to the beginning. But it’s very zoomed out and not too graphic.
