Checking in from the US. I've spent the past few days falling deep into the peptide rabbit hole, and Retatrutide has my attention in particular.. my goal is to shed some skinny fat and get a bit leaner.

Once I'd read through a ton of material (this forum's resources have been incredibly useful!), I finally pulled the trigger on what amounts to a beginner's bundle for myself.

Below is my haul.. if anything's missing, or if there's something else I ought to try alongside this setup, please tell me.

  • Peptide: 10x vials of Reta 10mg
  • BAC: 1x vial of 30ml Hospira (down the line I'm also thinking about Lambda water)
  • Insulin Syringes: 100x 31G, 5/16", 3mL (a pen came too, but I grabbed these as a backup/to experiment)
  • Recon Syringe: 100x Luer Lock 3mL
  • Alcohol Wipes: 400x Curad
  • Venting needle: 100x 30G 1/2" Generic from Amazon
  • Recon Needles: 100x Hypodermic Needles 25G 1.5”
  • Peptide Test V1 Pen
  • 10x Pen Cartridges
  • 10x .22μm PES 4mm Filters

One more thing: any suggestions for where to buy hypodermic needles?
 
For the needles/syringes you'll be using, I'd suggest picking up sharps containers too. If cost is a concern, an empty thick plastic container works — an empty protein powder tub, for example — just make sure to label it clearly. Check what your state requires for sharps waste disposal.
 
For 10 vials of Reta, that's quite a bit... of needles and syringes. My freezer is packed with peppers, and here's the supplies I've purchased:

  • 1x vial of 30ml Hospira
  • 500x alcohol wipes (went through 100x, picked up 400x at Costco)
  • 100x 1ml syringes
  • 100x 3ml syringes
  • 100x insulin pen needle
  • 10x Pen Cartridges
  • 2 Pep pens
  • Tons of peppers
In my opinion, all the pen-related items are pointless unless you're going to do daily peppers. Since I have 2, the pens made sense.
