Any advantage to 1ml or 2ml BAC with Reta?

[tracylynn]

The last time I reconstituted my reta, a 20mg vial, I used 1ml of BAC water. I saw someone talking about using 2ml and was curious if there is an advantage to doing more BAC water or less? Is it just a preference or are there reasons why someone would choose to do that?

My dosage is 4mg so I was injecting 20 units. Using the 2ml BAC water would bump me to 40 units and I don't know why someone would want to do that.

I figured I'm missing something.??

Just makes it easier to get an exact dose. If your syringe is out +/- 0.05ml for example in the first case (1ml reconstitution) a 5mg dose might be 0.25ml +/- 0.05ml which gives you a dose of 5mg +/- 1mg. In the second case you need 0.5ml for a 5mg dose, which if it's out 5ml +/- 0.05ml gives you 5mg +/- 0.5mg, so it's more accurate.
