When research subjects move to higher doses, do you cut back on BAC water?

Back when I used compounded tirz, the pharmacy cut corners and offered just a single strength: 10 mg/ml. Once I reached the max EL recommended dose, each shot turned into a 150 unit hassle that needed 2 syringes.

After I wisened up and switched to gray, I changed my approach. These days I reconstitute 60 mg vials using 2 ml BAC (30 mg/ml), which brings it down to just 50 units.

The pharmacy that compounds my material keeps it at 10mg/ml. That said, the initial vial for 2.5mg/week held just 1 ml. When I moved to the 5mg/week vial, it was 20mg/2ml — so the concentration stayed at 10mg/ml. The 7.5mg vial comes as 30mg/3ml, which again works out to 10mg/ml.

Wow, 75iu in a single injection is pretty extreme. I'm hoping they don't continue that approach at the 10mg and 15mg levels.

Brello was 22-25mg/ml, and even that was already starting to feel a bit extreme.

Nope — in my case the concentration stayed at 10 mg/ml as the dose went up. When they hit 15 mg, the vial they shipped was 10 ml and held 6 ml/60 mg. To pull my 150 units (1.5 ml), I needed two 100 unit syringes.

(Just so we're clear, you meant 75 units (0.75 ml), not iu (international unit). IU usually applies to vitamins or, around here, hgh.)

For me, GHK-cu is the sole peptide I mix with over 1 ml of BAC. All the rest are reconstituted using just 1 ml. That includes the T60 my wife (Mrs. NYD) uses at 15 mg/week, which works out to roughly 23 units per injection — the vial was overfilled to 65.xx mg. This concentration hasn't caused her any adverse reactions, and I haven't noticed any negatives from the concentrations I use either.

That's fantastic! And such useful info!!!!!

I wish I could claim there's a great rationale behind it, but honestly it comes down to me being super frugal and wanting to stretch every bit of BAC as far as I can

That does the job — I simply prefer injecting a smaller volume into myself, haha.
