Last few orders are harder to draw back … full of fillers?

[JourneyToPerfection]

I order through the same vendor almost every time, they’ve been good and reliable, prices are stable and the packages always arrive. If a package is seized (which it hasn’t been yet) I get either a free resend or full refund.

But the last two orders. Hmm.

I order a variety of peptides. Just like Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town, I gotta catch em all or in this case try all the ones I’m interested in.

But there’s been a problem of late. I’m finding that the last two packages I’ve ordered have been varying levels of difficult to draw back into the syringe. It’s driving me fkn mental. Same hospira BAC water, same needle gauge/length/brand I normally use. Some, like Glutathione, I’ve read can be more viscous than others. I gave up on that after waiting 4 minutes just to draw back half a dose. But ones I’ve used before, TB500? And T Alpha? They’re taking noticeably longer than normal to draw back.

Is it fillers? Poor quality?

I’ll do some actual research into why this could be happening but also appreciate the experience and knowledge from the forum brain trust over anything ChatDaddy tells me

On the Glutathione, I did 27g 600mg/1ml IM

I did notice on my cycle that 1.75ml BAC= 2ml total volume: the stuff was thick with excipients.

(may be partially due to 3ml syringe accuracy on Recon syringe)

Sorry do not know on the others

Yeah I’ve gone and ordered large gauge needles and bigger syringes for the rest of my Glut - although IM injecting terrifies me as I haven’t done it yet, but it’s looking like that’s the only way forward for me with it

Leuer lock. 18g to draw, whatever’s your fancy for the rest.

No need to harpoon yourself, you will bleed. Enjoy the fresh needle.

This one gave me the courage to do it IM. Fresh 25g 1” needle to inject.

As for harder to draw, could it be a vacuum issue?

For what’s it worth, jabbing a 1.5-2 inch thick needle in my ass never bothered me, but at first, the idea of jabbing a small needle in my belly felt so wrong. You will get used to it quick.

I got inch long ones, weirdly scared of hitting my bone even though I have more than enough flesh to cover inches of bone lol

Yeah a friend I order with said vacuum issue too, I hope it’s that and not quality

If the syringe keeps pulling back. Pull the plunger back about 10units more than your dose with air. Push all that air from the syringe into the vial standing straight up. Now try to draw the product. You were having a vacuum issue. I've been doing the forever with no issues. Don't try a vent needle, because when you turn the vial over to draw, the liquid will come out depending on that vent needle length.

This is one that I remember for the thigh too

Tbh I don’t cough and I don’t jab it in fast like they suggest but that’s a me thing lol sometimes I’ll use my nail to lightly scratch near the site to distract but you’ll find what works for you but a fresh sharp needle does wonders
