10mg in 2ml is 5mg/ml. so 0.5mg is 0.1ml which is 10 units on a u100

- back_from_away — the meniscus thing is real. read it at eye level or you are guessing by a unit either way 21:14
- triumph_watch — does benzyl alcohol matter if im finishing the vial in one go 21:16
- triumph_watch — sorry to jump in does it matter if i inject the bac water straight at the powder a slightly collapsed cake is cosmetic. a puddle in the bottom is not 22:40
- split_dose_sam — how long after reconstituting before its actually dissolved 22:41
coming back after 21 months, has the pinned recon volume advice changed
round numbers
thats 5mg/ml
bac water
i write the mg/ml on the vial with a sharpie the moment i reconstitute it
*VendorInvestigate not the other one
foam is bad
unrelated but if the maths gives you 13.7 units, change the volume. do not try to hit 13.7
my vial pulled the water in on its own, is that the vacuum or did i do something
it foamed. is it ruined
clear or bin it
does temperature of the bac water matter at all
the meniscus thing is real. read it at eye level or you are guessing by a unit either way
does benzyl alcohol matter if im finishing the vial in one go
ok so my rule is one concentration for everything so i never have to think about it at 7am
dead space
[edited]check your maths
sanity check my maths before i pin myself with something stupid
coming back to this give it 9 minutes at room temperature before you decide it has not dissolved
do not add more bac water to an already reconstituted vial, you have lost track of the concentration
why does everyone say 2ml specifically and not 1ml
unrelated but nobody here should be telling you a dose. we can check your arithmetic, thats a different thing
swirl dont shake
do you draw up with the same pin you inject with
sorry to jump in does it matter if i inject the bac water straight at the powder
a slightly collapsed cake is cosmetic. a puddle in the bottom is not
how long after reconstituting before its actually dissolved
lyophilised powder is far more robust than people think. it is the solution that is fragile
