Diluting

[tweak7]

what is the proper method of diluting a peptide in bac water before a sub-q injection?
thanks

[allenkster]

what are you mixing? and what end IU do you want?

[tweak7]

i'm mixing 2 units (200mcg) on a slin syringe of GHRP-2 with 4ml of bac water.

[tweak7]

I was assuming that i would draw in 4 unit marks on the slin syringe of bac water and then draw in 2 units of GHRP-2, assuming that 1 unit mark on a slin syringe is 1ML

[slash347]

How much ghrp do you have, and what is the desired final concentration?

[tweak7]

I have (3) 5mg bottles, i was told that 1 unit mark on a insulin syringe would equal 100mcg of GHRP-2 in the 5mg bottles.
I am wanting to shoot 200mcg 2 units on the slin syringe
and 4 units of Bac water.
so 6 unit marks on the syringe altogether. (is 1 unit mark 1ML?)
would i need to dilute them in a separate vial or can i just mix them by drawing them into the syring changing the needle and shooting?

sorry, I'm a bit tired and crabby today.. but your planning on a subQ injection of 4ml ?

IU and cc/ml are not interchangeable when your talking about medications and volume.

[tweak7]

yea i understand
let me ask you this
is 1 mark on a insulin syringe = to 1ML of Bac water?

1 ml of water is equal to 100 units of water, on the slin pin. So you have 400 units total of water if I understand you correctly.

5 mg=5000 mcg

If you put 400 units of water (4 ml) in a vial with 5000 mcg, then you'll have 5000 mcg/400 units, or 12.5 mcg/unit.

With that said, if you want 200 mcg of ghrp, you'll need 16 units of the mixture.

If you want to use 2 ml of water, then you'll have 25 mcg/unit and will need 8 iu of the mixture to equal 200 mcg ghrp.

If you want to use 1 ml of water, then you'll have 50 mcg/unit and will need 4 iu of the mixture to equal 200 mcg ghrp.

A unit, aka iu, is not the same as a ml or cc. 100 ticks on the slin pin equals 1 cc of liquid.

Got it? That's the way to reconstitute things, I have no idea about the dose/injection protocol of ghrp. I'm just giving you the info on how to make the concentration you desire.

okay yea i got it
so 1 unit is the 10 mark on the insulin syringe or 1 ML?
never dosed with a slin syringe before

[tweak7]

do i have to dilute in mass quantities or can i dilute 1 injection at a time?

Every single line or tick on the slin pin is one unit (or two units, depending on the size of the pin...you should be able to figure this out). The "10" mark is 10 units. If your pin has "100" on it, then it holds one ml of liquid (whatever the liquid may be, the pin holds a volume of 1 ml). If it has only 50, then it is half of a ml.

You have to dilute one bottle at a time. You cannot dilute per injection.

okay sorry, i gave you wrong info on the amount of bac water
i have a clearer understanding of reconstituting after reading this
http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...nsulin+syringe

okay,
10mark on the INSULIN syringe = 100Mcg of GHRP-2



On my cycle I will be taking a total 200Mcgs of GHRP-2 in each shot.
So, the 20mark on the syringe will equal 200Mcgs of GHRP-2

i was told that i need to dilute each 200Mcg injection with 4ML of bac water
does this sound right or should that be 4ML/400units for 5000mcgs of GHRP-2?

just so i'm straight the 10 Mark on the syringe= 1 Unit/IU ???

thanks for the help just don't want to **** up

i guess now i'm trying to find out how much Bac water i should use to Reconstitute 5MGs of GHRP-2

okay gottcha

[tweak7]

alright man cool MANY MANY thanks slash347 i get it...just have never done this before have only used gear which is simple to measure...but now that i understand this is simple too lol
okay for any others who want to use GHRP and was in the same boat

if you have 5mg vial of GHRP-2 you'll need to dilute it with 5MLs of Bacteriostatic Water to dilute each 5mg vial of GHRP-2.

wipe the top of the bac water vial with alcohol pad pull 500units/5mls.
wipe the top of the GHRP-2 vial with alcohol pad and inject the 500units of Bac water into the vial pointing the needle up against the side of the vial letting the water (or dilutant) run down so you won't harm the peptide.
let the lypholized powder dissolve. Use within 7-10 days.

average dose of GHRP-2 is 400mcgs daily split up into two separate subcutanous injections. 1 post workout and 1 before you go to bed.

500units of water (5ML) in a vial with 5,000Mcgs of GHRP-2 will leave you with 5,000Mcgs/500 units or 5,000 divided by 500 equaling 10units
which means if you want 200mcg of GHRP-2 you'll need to pull 20 units on the slin pin for 1 subq injection.
average cycle length for peptide is 4-6 weeks
