"self-determined dose of 10 mg" I wonder if it was actually units and not mg or did they actually think starting at 10mg going to 20mg (actually 30mg) was a good idea.

Fair enough. My biggest concern with this market is idiotic people not doing an ounce of research before dosing and drawing unnecessary attention to people who are just trying to improve their health with at least a little affordability.

I have come across lots of case reports like this for tirzepatide but especially semaglutide as it has been around longer. This is exactly the biggest real world risk of grey peptides. Most people do not have a lot of background pharmaceutical knowledge and a lot of people are not that great at maths either. Doctors and nurses make dosing errors despite being very careful not to, using medication in very clearly labelled packaging, so making dosing errors when starting to use grey peptides is super easy and not rare at all. This person had the whole thing , gastrointestinal upsets leading to dehydration leading to acute kidney failure, that is exactly the worst case outcome, although his kidneys recovered, they do not always recover, and this is the main way it is possible to die from grey glp's. Do lots of research first and always double and triple check doses and dilutions.

Wow. I was just talking to my sponsor the other day about how rare it is for someone to OD and get into a bad situation with GLP1s. I had told him that most are folks who purposefully take huge doses hoping to get all the benefits quicker - and they don't realize that the peps need time to build up in the body to reach therapeutic levels...

I just saw somebody on there yesterday say "I'm an actual nurse and I have mis-dosed myself." I thought what if that was a patient's morphine you screwed up???

Usually administering injectable drugs , especially something like morphine requires 2 nurses to cross check the order and the dose, so the second person will hopefully notice a mistake if it is made. ( And hopefully notice if the doctor has made a mistake with the prescription ) It sadly does still happen despite training and systems put in place to minimise errors and maximise chances of catching them. Most medication errors are not going to cause real harm, an extra dose of antibiotics by mistake is not likely to cause problems, but sometimes serious errors do happen and sometimes people are harmed or even die. No system is ever perfect , and all people will sometimes make mistakes, and all that can be done is to design a system that will prevent as many errors as is possible.
There are no protective systems in place for peptides, and the vials have a wide range of doses , are usually not carefully labelled and each vial has enough to make you quite ill, so it is not that surprising that accidental GLP overdoses are fairly common. There are a few posts on this forum from people who were were not newbies who have done it , but thankfully there were no major issues.
