NAD+ Reconstitution advice needed

Nuncles

Is that why I see a lot of places give the option for 500mg and 1000mg? Is the 500 supposed to sting less? And what size vials do 500mg normally come in?

EXTROPIAN

@gym.rat Yes i might just blow through them. Up the dose tongauge the difference in this case. They are 100mg vials. But I am in my sweet spot though. Well my ph test strips are in my amazon cart now. Man this is getting expensive. lol

I'm not sure, Nuncles; it's just the amount in the vial; the amount of BAC is still a personal choice. In 500mg I use 5ml BAC, which makes it a 30 unit pull in syringe for 30mg dose. In 1000mg I use up to 10ml for the same 30 dose/units. I like my numbers to line up as the same; saves confusion.

Whether it's BUFFERED is what matters as far as tolerability (sting).

YA THINK?! LOL! There are true professional pep hogs here... I'm an amateur.

BTW, use an amber vial with NAD+ if you have one. Light protection and makes it last longer.

EXTROPIAN

@Eleanor no no no i draw the line on the amber vials. Ill just wrap them with aluminum foil before someone come up that aluminum has a negative charge and it will give my peps a bad attitude. lol

How bad is this sting? is it worse than GHK? I have buffered, just reconned it last night and psyching myself up or out not sure lol

Nuncles

In my opinion, not that bad. If it starts to sting, I slow down the injection. I've read that you don't want to use an auto injector for it. Let me know how it compares to GHK-CU.

@WisGal64 I have yet to figure out how to not get a red blotch from GHK-CU. It doesn't hurt or itch, but it stays for about a day.

WisGal64

@nuncles good to know, I'll report back

@stevepep I get those too, some weeks are better than others. Hubs on the other hand with the exception of that one time he used inner thigh(I still crack up about it), he has had no issues. Interesting how ppl react differently. Someone mentioned Muchcaine, a topical lido based cream, I may invest in some.

No burn or sting, only 25mg to start off. 29G 1/2", took the advice and went super slow

Love that BUFFERED! I've never experienced sting from buffered. Happy for you, @wisgal64

Eleanor

If I can figure out how to stop Cartalax (of all things) from stinging, I'll have it made. Think it's the location on my leg.

@wisgal64 Meant to tell you to hit the NAD+ 1st thing in the morning. After a couple of weeks, even if you don't take it but every other day, you'll be wired and if you have sleep problems... Extrapolate from here.

WisGal64

Thanks for the tip! Cartalax is stinging? No stinging for hubs or I but I think I do recall someone else mentioning they felt a sting.

I've done around the knees, what location on your leg are you using?

Eleanor

Mid leg on the outside for outer knee pain. Don't want to get near the meniscus.
