    Hey all, just reconstituted and am going to use my new pen in the morning. A couple of workflow questions:

    Do you store your cartridge in the pen in the fridge or take the cartridge out each time when youre only researching one thing at at time?

    Do you alcohol swab the top of the cartridge each time before you put it back in the pen?

    I'm assuming this is a yes but if you and a spouse or whatever where going to research the same thing, I assume you can use the same cartridge, just swap the needle.

    Thanks !

      Once the cartridge is in the pen, you leave it there. Otherwise every time you put it in, you need to recalibrate the plunger. (Do not recommend.)

      Yes, I wipe the top of the cartridge every time just to be safe.

        i see, just noticed that, i basically had to waste some o
        to reset it back to 0, makes sense to just leave it in otherwise it’s a waste! thanks for the help!

          Having a few pens is a good idea for those peptides you do constantly, you can have 1 pen that you swap vials but its a pain in the ass.

          Ive injected myself so many times with out priming the pen, lol
