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.

Many times in the film, in grotesque ways. You can generally see it coming, basically anytime she's in the bathroom with her body double. The worst bit is towards the end she's putting a large needle repeatedly into an infected wound.
