Weekly poll 😅 BAC water: are you on team more or team less? (Tirz/Reta)

[Mara_aa]

Alright… here’s what’s probably my silly poll for this week.

Once you mix up Tirz or Reta, which side are you on:

• team less BAC
  
• team more BAC

And the big one… what’s your reason?

Drop it below:

Tirz or Reta

• More or less BAC
  
• Why you do it (burning, injection volume, easier dosing, smoother reconstitution, microdosing accuracy or anything else).

Feels like everybody has their own way of thinking about this, and I’m 100% overthinking it

When you say more or less bac, what do you mean exactly? Is it about how much bac water you draw up?

Not a silly thing to ask

People handle this in all sorts of ways, and each has their own logic.

Mine looks like this:

I get Tirz vials sized to last me a month.

That works out to four pins

If one vial does cover a month for me, then 2ml of Bac yields 4 pins at 50 units

That number is simple to hit on the syringe and leaves little room for error.

Yep, that’s right — I’m talking about how much BAC water goes in.

That method sounds genuinely useful.

Just wondering — how much are you dosing so that each injection comes to 50 units?

 

[byefatlicia]

The kit I'm using right now came back at 45mg.

When I add 2ml of Bac, that works out to 4 pins, each 11.25mg, drawn at 50 units

I think it comes down to what you're comfortable with? There are those who are fine pinning 100 units, while others would rather stick to 20 units.

I’ve just begun Reta again. This week I’m moving up to 4mg (my 1st bump). I’ll pull .2ml.

When my dose goes higher, I’ll probably hold my draw at .2–.25ml. There’s no particular reason—it’s just that .3ml syringes are simpler for me to read.

 

[Turbo-Farmer]

Reconstituted, it's meant to last 28 days. On day 29, that works out to 5 shots. With 1.5ml of Bac added, you get 5 shots at 30 units each.

That logic tracks, I suppose.

Still, when it comes to how much it stings — has the amount you use ever changed that for you personally?

I've never experienced any burning from any GLP when I use bac.

 

[Chili777]

R50 with 1 ml BAC. 10 mg 20 units.

 

[PineCone99]

I fall into the Less camp.

The sole reason is that putting bigger amounts into my body weirds me out, and I honestly can't explain why.

So for my 10 mg Reta vial, I add 1 mL BAC water and then draw up 10 units (a pleasant, tiny dose).

Understood — you’ve just landed yourself a spot on my “reconstituted vial expiry tracking” roster, thanks!

List: expiry of a vial after reconstitution. Thanks!

A lot of people I know, myself included, have kept using it well past that 28-day figure, which is really just arbitrary. It doesn't spoil; it just loses a bit of potency. So you bump the dose by 5 to 10%, with 10 being the most extreme end of that range.

That really clears things up.

You're going on the “small volume” list!

You're now counted in the “small volume” group!

 

[swimmer]

My approach matches byefatlicia's, and it's driven by the identical rationale.
