Can Reconstituted Reta be Re-Aliqouted and Frozen

[peptidesupremacy08]

So I was looking at a vendor and their 60mg kits are way cheaper per mg than their 10mg kits. However, I only use about 2.0mg per week, so I would go way over the window to finish the reconstituted peptide, if I were to use that. I seem to be mixed answers from google, reddit, and chatgpt on if I can freeze the reconstituted peptide. My idea would be to dilute with 6ml bac, then portion out into 6 vials at 1ml each and freeze them at -20c in my regular home freezer. Would this destroy/destabilize the peptide? If not, guess I'll just have to pay the extra, but it's not that bad considering it's really not that expensive.

No, you shouldn’t freeze it. It’ll change the structure of the molecules. I’m so hesitant to purchase those larger quantities too, just for the fact that I couldn’t use them fast enough either. Plus I think the recommendation is once it’s reconstituted you should use it within 8 weeks.

There was just a question from someone about freezing another GLP. I think it’s a bad idea. Others will insist it’s fine. I don’t think this is the best place to get a definitive answer on this. You need to decide what your risk level is.

You may not always just be on 2mg a week. At a certain point it might be necessary to up your dose. Those larger mg kits would come in handy there. Would it still be cheaper for you at 2 mg to purchase a 50 or 60 mg kit and use it until you are no longer comfortable using it then throw the rest away?

The problem is that I’m not sure when I should be uncomfortable using the peptide. Everywhere I look claims that 28 days/month is about as long as you should go.

I’m not terribly concerned about getting a subq skin infection, though I probably should be. I get scratches/cuts with bacteria riddled stuff regularly. I also am very precautious with everything—sterilize my work surface, then bring everything out, clean everything with alcohol swaps before doing my injections.

My main issue is with the peptide breaking down and my money basically going down the drain. I’ve read that after the month mark I mentioned, the peptide generally starts to degrade and is therefore not as potent. I can’t seem to find a proper answer on this.

See even this is different from what I’ve heard, I’m losing my mind not having any concrete info, lol. In my other reply, I mentioned the figure I saw was 4 weeks. A number of other sources recommend not freezing though, so thank you for that!

Yeah, I would say I’m fairly risk averse, I’m just cheap too…thank you though!

I've personally used vials past two months. I just figure if it isn't working as well I will just increase dose a little on the bottle. So far I haven't had to. My first bottle was sema and I paid over $50 for it.
