Semax Nasal Spray
-
So I have gone down the rabbit hole on researching this for my research rat and had some newbie questions as I have not made a nasal spray before.
Say I reconstitute 10mg with 3ml of bac water and 5ml of saline. Does the saline dilute the peptide in a way I need to know for dosing?
I found a nasal spray dosing calculator that says it will be 0.9 per dose. Am I correct in thinking that's 6 units and that would be for each side? It also is saying that's 333.3mcg. Is that for each side also?
I wanted to start my research at a total of 300mcg once a day. So do I need to add more bac water when reconstituting to make each side 150mcg?
Sorry if this all seems self explanatory but I just want to make sure I get this right.
Thanks

Wouldn't the bac water burn? I've always heard Deionized water or saline solution for nasal sprays. Haven't tried one yet myself.
Edit:
I just remembered, I had saved a recipe someone shared with me. Maybe this will help
@WisGal64 Thanks for that.
I have been reading mixed opinions about how back water may or may not burn. On the Peptide Critic YouTube video about this nasal spay, Jeff uses bac water first to reconstitute and then adds the saline in the spray bottle. On another about nasal spray he does say if you use to much bac water it will burn. He never uses more than 2ml for reconstitution. I have seen people say just using saline can cause the peptide to clump. I guess I'll just have to see how it goes.

Ahhh.. I guess I better go watch the his videos! Let me know how it goes

Pfizer Hospira makes Bacteriostatic Saline. That's what I use for nasal sprays. Can get it at Peptide Test. I do follow Jeff's advice in video though and reconstitute with BAC water first, then add the BAC saline. Doesn't burn at all.

I used 2 mL Bac water and 5 mL saline to make a nasal spray with 10mg of Semax. Haven't had any issues with burning. I did start with one spray and now use two sprays in the morning and still no issues. Seems to work great.
