One pen, one pen tip, multiple cartridges.
-
My rat name Extropy has been researching for 5mo with great results. From metabolic reset, mitochondria optimizing, mental health, longevity, immune and yes she went all in. She is filtering all the peps into pen cartridges as suggested here. In one sitting Extropy has been able to push a set of 2-4 cartridges through one 33Gx4mm pin tip. After she finish the pen tip it gets discarted. She hasn't had any issues. Anyone doing the same or?

All that can be nullified if the contamination in the reused pen noodle exceeds Extropy's tolerance level.
She MAYBE reuse a cartridge, MAYBE MAYBE, but never a noodle.

So you’re using the same pen needle for all of your pins? You should be using a new pen needle for every injection. They are designed for single-use only. And if you’re researching that many with only one pen, you should grab a few more pens. There are so many things that could go wrong.
Here is why reusing or sharing a needle between different peptides is unsafe. Cross-Contamination: Injecting different peptides with the same needle can introduce traces of one peptide into the vial of another. This can cause the substances to chemically interact, degrade, and lose their potency or efficacy. Infection Risk: Once a needle pierces your skin, it is exposed to bacteria and is no longer sterile. Reusing it increases the risk of developing localized skin infections or abscesses. Blunting and Pain: Even after a single use, the microscopic tip of a needle can bend, barb, or become dull. Reusing a blunted needle damages the skin, increasing pain, bruising, and tissue irritation. Medication Spills: Leaving a needle attached to a pen between uses can cause the peptide solution to leak or crystallize, which leads to inaccurate dosing.
@mrjoshua44 Yes agree this is the reason she is putting it out there. She is considering more pens now that the stack has increased. Gracias!

The most I'll ever do is two smaller injections one after the other for stuff that's more likely to cause an ISR, more than that is just silly.
@SwollStreetBets Thanks
-
for the .15/.20 cents it cost for the pen needle im using a new one every time, not worth the injection site reaction or having any issues for pennies! sometimes being cheap is just dumb, like washing paper plates.
@brandenscheidecker Honestly, the reason she has
been pushing the one pen sitting was cause of convenience. My girl is on the go go go! lol -
My question is why? What is the purpose of increasing the risk. It’s the same with the expired Bac water. Why? These things are things we can easily avoid. Others we can’t so the ones we can don’t take risks.

@martinmarin I know it's not popular, but I travel with one pen and multiple cartridges. It's pretty simple to reload a cartridge. I bring a bunch of pen needles and alcohol wipes, though. Bringing 5 pens through customs is not something I want to try.
@Stevepep So far she has not had any issues. I had experience anesthesiologists hit multiple spots with the same injection. Even my dentist when I had teeth. lol This shouldn't be far fetched right?But she does try to keep it at two as a minimum. Thanks!

Agree.
Well good thing she is pinning less now. At the most in her cycles were as following:- One pin per every other day in "one sitting"- MOTSC, NAD+ and SS-31
- One pin an evening handled in "one sitting"- CJC+Ipa Tesa
- Reta one pin weekly.
- One pin a day 5 amino 1mq
- One pin every other day Cardarine
Yes I know. It is a lot of pinning. The pins add and last thing you know your box of 100 are gone. Well it is what it is.
After use they where discarded. i didn't reuse them the following day not later that day. Should i just go back to insulin injections and pull all at once for one shot again? -
@mrjoshua44 good labeling. This is how its done
@Randy This is the way..

@martinmarin
The pins are cheap. Especially compared to the peptides. If you can’t afford the pins, time to cut back on the peptides@Commander I just order two boxes. I do work hard for my $ but $ not an issue. I'm always looking for efficiency. There is always a way.
