Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.

I love that this community will spend 40 comments on a detail. That pedantry is why the numbers here matter.

This is an urgent-care question wearing a forum question's clothes. Please contact a clinician rather than waiting for replies.

Cored the stopper on my 13th draw because I kept using the same entry point. Rotate the puncture site.
comment on asked my compounder where the API comes from. long silence. in c/compounding · 35 points · 3 days ago
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
comment on half-life is 168 hours. that is why your injection day barely matters. in c/glp1science · 1 points · 3 days ago
central appetite signalling is real but people overweight it
Disagree on that part. 99.0% and 98.9% on the same vial is normal.

week two nothing happening — yes, that is normal
comment on sterile water is not bacteriostatic water and it is not close in c/reconstitution · 73 points · 6 days ago
Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.

comment on the nausea profile at 7.5 was worse than 10 for me and i cannot explain it in c/tirzepatide · 22 points · 12 days ago
Not to be pedantic but Mounjaro and 15mg are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.

dead space is real and the syringe matters
comment on [Question] does anyone get a COA from their compounding pharmacy in c/compounding · 11 points · 14 days ago

Sceptical.
Disagree on that part. 95.1% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.

the shortage list is temporary, it ends and compounding becomes illegal again

The 503A pharmacy I used lost their shortage list eligibility. Same day, compounding became illegal. Rules are real.

the concentration on the vial in marker is the most important step
