foam means you shook it. do not shake it
Long-ish post, sorry. tl;dr at the bottom. I have been tracking insulin syringe against eGFR for 15 weeks because I could not find anyone who had. The correlation is…

Reconstituted at 2mL when I meant 11mL. Caught it because the units looked wrong. Write the concentration.

dead space is real and the syringe matters

comment on sterile water is not bacteriostatic water and it is not close in c/reconstitution · -7 points · 4 days ago
Slight fix: the number was 98.7, not 98.3. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
comment on [Explainer] units are volume, mg are mass, this is the #1 error on this site in c/reconstitution · 15 points · 12 days ago
Cored the stopper on my 21th draw because I kept using the same entry point. Rotate the puncture site.
comment on [PSA] let the alcohol swab dry before you puncture, that is the step everyone skips in c/reconstitution · 83 points · 14 days ago
stopper coring on the 11th draw because you keep using the same entry point. rotate.

Did Homopeptide respond or ghost you?
comment on bacteriostatic water is the most under-discussed thing in c/cagrilintide in c/reconstitution · 149 points · 1 months ago
Did you write the concentration on the vial?

Is that 10mg vial or 22mg?

Spent 3 weeks confused about concentration math until someone showed me the table. 30mg, 1mL, concentration is 30/1.

the reconstitution question that gets asked weekly, answered properly
dead space. That is the whole post, but I will justify it. Everything else people worry about in c/intlshipping is downstream of it. Titration speed, early fullness,…
comment on the fake COA thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/scamalerts · 4 points · 1 months ago
sock puppet accounts ask the same leading questions
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

never post a calculation as advice without stating the concentration

unpopular opinion: mg/mL is massively overrated
Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles. The claim: reconstitution matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both…
comment on genuine question about exit scam that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/scamalerts · 16 points · 2 months ago
Inter-lab variance on this kind of assay is routinely 1–2 points. Different column, different gradient, different integration.
comment on [Discussion] the insulin syringe advice in here is 10 years out of date in c/reconstitution · 496 points · 3 months ago
Rodent data is rodent data. Dose scaling is not linear and the models tell you what to investigate, not what to expect.
comment on help me understand cycle, I have read the wiki twice in c/glp1women · 1 points · 3 months ago
the trials mostly studied men, insulin resistance skipped
