check your maths
a slightly collapsed cake is cosmetic. a puddle in the bottom is not
is it worth buying a 3ml syringe for the diluent or is the insulin one fine
my 10mg vial weighed 11.4g on the jewellery scale, is that wrong
bac water or sterile water for something im going into weekly for 7 weeks
one unit is 0.01ml
a 3ml syringe for the diluent and a u100 for the dose is the setup most people here end up with
dead space
15mg in 3ml is 5mg/ml. same numbers as 10 in 2, just more of it
bacteriostatic water for anything multi-use. sterile water has no preservative in it at all
give it 5 minutes at room temperature before you decide it has not dissolved
is there any reason not to just always use 2ml
