Alternative to HOSPIRA Bac

[Adavis3053]

Anyone ever hear of Alpha+Omega peptides OR pure peptides?

both are making and selling their own BAC water which is way cheaper than HOSPIRA now. i asked for sterility results and Pure said they are working with 3rd party testers now and Alpha said that its just water and alcohol. not a professional response

 

[yobculture]

I found out about the birth supplies Canada site also and ordered a case when it said it was in stock on July 4th, the 5th it said they were actually out of stock and they’d email me when it was ready to be shipped. I just received an email this morning that it shipped, it was $206 CAD total including shipping and fees. So I believe that’s about $150 usd which is a steal compared to everything else I’ve seen in the us….BUT I literally saw yesterday that someone ordered BAC water from Canada and that they live in Oregon (so do I) and theirs made it through customs but the fda took it and confiscated it. I’m worried 😟

Mine is stuck in customs, too, and I only ordered 5. 😕 All this fuss for a tiny bottle of water with 0.9% benzyl alcohol.

Times are a changin’! 🙃

Unless they are being too honest on the customs declaration, seems like random bad luck:

I bought an extra case from them at the beginning of summer.

By the way, I have also been using BAC from Amazon. Have not had any problems, but after reading a lot on here.... it does seem logical to try and use Hospira if you can find it. Each thing we do along this journey has its amount of risks that each person must decide for themselves about, and how comfortable or not they are about those risks.

Me too! 😀

Mine has been stuck in LA customs for a few days, Uslaxa

Guess the agents are busy with other things they are involved with in Cali

The absurdity of customs seizing Bacteriostatic Water while they allow actual hard drugs and perverse items to make it through is comical.

Yeah, guessing it will get through. Just probably take a day or two more

I don’t know. I think they are petty enough to take it, but I hope you get what you bought.

How long do you usually wait for them to come BAC in stock?

 

[Rated_rko]

Pfizer’s always been my go to

I am not familiar with their restocking schedule. If you are in rush get elsewhere. But no harm putting your email

At Amino Annex, cost is $57.50 shipped for five:

Otherwise, $12 each plus $7.50 flat shipping, which is good if you want a couple vials of peptides anyway.


AllThingsPeptides has saline BAC (30 mL) for $5.63. Saline BAC seems good for most peptides except possibly reta, but even that may be fine:

Results that some of you got are so weird to me because I don't have that experience at all, I'm sure you tested properly I just don't get why mine never cause precipitation in anything.

I've used tirz, Reta, glow, IPA, Tesa - all clear, effective and liquid weeks after reconstitution

Only time I get precipitation is when the pH isn't appropriate for the peptide, like cagri and IPA a especially sensitive

For reference I use the 10ml bottles from Pfizer and I'm pretty confident they're legit

Though AllThingsPeptides wants $14 for regular BAC, the cost of their other supplies is low.

Received from Canada quite quickly with no issues.

 

[Calm Logic]

FDA is really dropping the ball 🏈 😆

That seems like the best deal right now, though there is some small risk of seizure.

Just in case anyone cares…I just received my BAC water from the Canadian birth supplies site. I was surprised they literally put on the box that it’s BAC water inside…I’ve never ordered from another country directly until this grey market jaunt, and the peptides definitely don’t say “ayyyy peptides in here”👌 so idk if that’s typical or not but otherwise looks good! Pfizer BAC water. The labels looks different than the Hospira BAC water, I know they’re the same thing, but yeah. It appears to be legit stuff and took exactly 2 weeks from my order date.

I only ordered five lousy bottles from the same company and they’ve been in customs for 11 days now. How long was this case in customs?

Mine was in customs for less than a day

I am optimistic you will see movement on Monday morning. From the many reports at Reddit over the years, customs can randomly take weeks, but it hasn't happened to me yet.

Thank you for your kind and positive words! The silliness of a tiny bottle of water with a bit of benzoyl alcohol being seized by customs is almost funny. It’s only five little bottles, which is no great loss, but I just don’t a “red flag” on my name because of it. It really doesn’t get much dumber than this.

 

[ZippityDooDah]

Don't be.

Any company that relies on cross-border trade is not going to risk the ire of two governments by lying on customs declarations. Most companies won't even fudge the declared value anymore. Same thing with individuals who have NEXUS or Global Entry; any hint of mischief and they'll revoke them in a heartbeat (and they'll forever be subjected to "enhanced" inspections any time they cross the border or clear customs at an airport). If there's one thing that the US and Canadian governments manage to do well it's close cooperation on border and customs issues.

 

[nekojeeta]

If you are looking for Hospita just call local compounding pharmacies as they usually sell 1-2 bottles to people with no issues. Don’t ask for a case though else they might reject you

I pay $4-6 per 30ml bottle usually

 

[AndyPanda]

If your doctor will not, Telehealth companies will write you scripts for it. If you have insurance you will be on the hook for co-pays but if you are risk averse it might be worth it for you.

Mine is still in customs too. I was going to post yesterday but decided lets see if it updates Monday morning. But nothing yet. I also ordered 5 pack.

As of July 14 6:42am so 7 days but feels like forever
Item has been sent to customs in the destination country
Uslaxa, USA

 

[lauranyc77]

I know I have seen images and posts about the Canadian labels being different

Is it still in customs?

 

[yobculture]

Yup! At this point I’m giving up. I just hope I don’t get a red mark on my name. I guess I should just be happy that the government, in their infinite wisdom, saved us from another dastardly small bottle of water!
