am I the only one who found concentration harder than the injections
Genuinely asking, not being difficult. Everyone in c/cagrilintide repeats that bacteriostatic water is important. I believe it, but I have never seen anyone show why, and when I search I get 8 threads of people agreeing with each other. Is there a paper? Is there a measurement? Or is this one of those things that is…
I love that this community will spend 40 comments on a detail. That pedantry is why the numbers here matter.
This is correct. 3mL versus 12mL is the common mistake.
dosing errors come from people reconstituting two vials differently and forgetting which is which
Two vials, two different concentrations, forgot which was which, almost made a 9 times error. Now I label everything.

Adding to this: mg/mL is doing more work than the comment implies.
bacteriostatic and sterile water are not interchangeable, do not use them that way
Cosigning. The concentration on the vial in marker is load-bearing.
never post a calculation as advice without stating the concentration
Not to be pedantic but insulin syringe and mg/mL are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.
dead space is real and the syringe matters

Disagree on that part. 95.1% and 97.6% on the same vial is normal.
