    @daemonlancaster So I bought some off of amazon a while back. I did not use it. It was for backup. After those test results form different venders came out, I threw it away. Not worth the risk in my opinion. But we all decide what risks we take...

    Also...Sorry guys, I left off the decimal in the filters i was describing. Meant to say ".22 micron" or ".22um". I guess nobody noticed, but 22um and .22um are vastly different things lol.

    Thank you. There is a lot to learn. Most of the coas on tirzepatide have purity but not the endotoxins and heavy metals test - and if they do - it's too much, you might as well order from a compounding pharmacy - but we'll see I guess. Thank you for your help.

    @Commander said in Have I been dosing wrong? : I actually wouldn’t use a pen for more than 25iu of anything. Even if you filled the cartridge up with 3ml, at 25iu thst is only 12 shots. Any less than that and I wouldn’t go through the hassle filling cartridges. So I would just say use a regular 100iu insulin syringe I hear that, but then again, 12 shots at that rate is 3 months worth, assuming weekly doses?

    When I tested pens sometimes 5iu wouldn’t fire and on the next 5iu fire you get 10 iu (both doses). The issue doesn’t exist when firing 10iu.

    @Randy So does that mean I have to fully open those vials? I think with metal crimp and rubber stopper steam won't get inside fully. Right?

    Spicy ones. Thicc ones (aod, tesa 5amino). I always default to a bigger needle too. 31g

    @pc.envy I have a lot of Convi and Gansulin, wish I could get them in more colors. The sleeves are ok, but some sleeves fit good and some don’t. And the labels don’t stuck to the sleeve the best. I am actually moving over to almost all Nova 4 with that adapter. The Nova 4 just feels really solid. There are a bunch of other pens out there I want to try, but none look as solid to me as the Nova 4. My friends are lucky, I give them all the pens and other stuff I buy and don’t like.

    Same. Had a post about the tips I got not even fitting through the hidden cap feature. I'm using the Novofine Plus! 32G 4mm and the base is fatter so I have to skip that step of putting the sheath back on. Much easier tbh

    I freeze anything I plan to not to use within the next year. You’ll want a vacuum wall canister if storing in a self defrost freezer. Place a couple Desiccant packets inside the container too. I use these containers that come with the inserts. I prefer the flat top one. https://community.peptidecritic.com/post/1384

    I'm curious of the longer term storage of a reconned pep in a cartridge vs in a vial. I understand the suggested usage of a reconned pep within 28-30 days has more to do with the BACw keeping potential bacteria growth down with repeated poking of the vial top diminishing over time. With loading a cartridge and purging the air, would it be plausible the pep would encounter less contamination possible? It's been on my mind for a while now and figured this is the best place to ask! Appreciate the community, great place for learning and sharing

    @jackiewatson said in Xulin Pen 3: What makes it better than the other manual ones? Just curious! Just had a better feel about it to me than the V2 that I got. V2 is a good pen also.
