my compounded vial arrived at a different concentration than last month
Quick one. Canada here.
503A works very differently where I live than in the threads that dominate the front page, and I keep seeing people confidently given advice that simply does not apply outside the US.

Happy to answer questions from anyone in the same jurisdiction.
