Hey everyone! My 30 mg Reta vial arrived yesterday, and I injected a 1 mg dose. Whether it was placebo, I really can't say — but after just 3 eggs, I had zero appetite for the remainder of the day, which is unusual since I'd normally be ravenous. I'm hesitant to claim it kicked in a few hours later, yet that's honestly how it felt. Day 2 has me eating a decent amount while still feeling fine. Anyone have thoughts?

Storage is another thing on my mind. It's sitting in the regular fridge at the moment, and the vial feels quite cold — should I be worried about that affecting the compound? A mini fridge is something I'm considering buying, though I'd like to know whether other people's vials also get this cold.

One more question: has anyone here moved from Reta over to Tirz, and if so, what was that like? If the Reta side effects turn out rough, I may think about it, but things are going well so far. Thanks!

Fridge is definitely right. Light is the other thing to dodge — a case you can’t see through would handle that.
What is the shelf life when kept in the refrigerator?
A BAC solution containing a preservative should keep for a minimum of 30 days once reconstituted, though plenty of us stretch that window much further. Just be sure to stick to good technique — wipe with alcohol prior to needle insertion, use a fresh needle every time, and so on. Should the liquid become cloudy or otherwise look contaminated, throw it out.
