do not add more bac water to an already reconstituted vial, you have lost track of the concentration

it should be completely clear with no floaters. cloudy means stop

20mg in 2ml is 10mg/ml. 1mg is 10 units, 2mg is 20 units, easy, thats just me

SS

anyone worked out a recon volume that puts 7.5mg on a round unit mark

the jewellery scale is a good habit but calibrate it, they drift badly

5mg in 2ml gives 2.5mg/ml, 0.25mg is 10 units. good for a starting dose

if you draw up with a bigger pin and inject with a fresh one you lose a bit more to dead space
took me a year to stop over-diluting. the measurement error at 4 units is worse than the convenience

do you let it come to room temp before drawing or draw it cold

SO

i swirl for about thirty seconds and then leave it. never had one fail to dissolve

while im here why does everyone say 2ml specifically and not 1ml

SS

one unit is 0.01ml. 100 units is 1ml. everything else in this channel follows from that
