Does injection/reconstitution volume matter?

Just getting started with some T-20 and intuitively I would think trying injecting to inject less volume is better (hopefully less irritation), right?

My idea was to reconstitute 20mg with 0.8ml BAC so I only have to pin 10 units for my 2.5mg starter dose. Are there any downsides or reasons to reconstitute with more BAC?

Thanks!
 
I tend to use more BAC, one reason why is that some liquid is lost with every pull from the vial, and the more BAC you use, the lower the concentration is, so the lower the amount of API lost is as well.

Precise dosing is also easier with higher volumes - e.g a 0.5 unit error in volume means more error in dosing at a high concentration than a low one.
 
I prefer more volume so that a unit difference isn’t a potentially large mg difference.

And Tirz isn’t spicy, so there should be no irritation.
 
Little boost but I didn't do ss31 beforehand like i think is recommended. Some people really benefit from it and some don't as much. Guess it depends on how optimized you are going into it.
 
I like less volume. When I ran mots c, I put only .5 ml of bac water into a 10mg vial so I could blast the entire vial at once.
How did that reconstitute with such a small amount of bac? You've pricked my interest as I have a 40mg vial of MOTS-c which I hit every other day for 3.5mg which is about 26U or if I do it your way, 4U. Has me curious about doing the same thing with my other vials.

It is reccomended, think ill order that before messing with the mots-c ty again!
 
It makes me feel like it's not gonna work with such a small amount of units. Just started mots c, 40mg vial 3ml water works out at 15 units which is small. The bpc I've just started is only 10 which feels weird.

Volume and concentration are 2 very different things. If you want higher units, you increase volume.... and that just dilutes the peptide.
 
The less volume the better id say...except for the spicy ones. Ghk-cu, Im taking 2mg in 20 units of bac...and it still leaves red itchy bumps, but anything less was unbearable to me!
 
I like less volume; a 10-20 unit dose is fine for me, and I prefer not to do more than 35 units when I can help it. It's in my head; I get a little queasy thinking about larger volumes sloshing around in my fat pockets, making a warm, watery soup. I know that's not a real thing, but once it was in my head, I couldn't shake it.

Also, for those people mentioning doing MOTS-C but having skipped the SS-31 before, you're really missing out. I'll never touch MOTS-C again, because my last ISR (last dose mid-January) has finally faded enough that if I wasn't looking for it, I couldn't find it, but only after months of having pea-sized hard lumps I could feel with my fingers. But SS-31 is on my Always Four that I expect I'll always want to keep cycling (a GLP-1 of some kind, epitalon, KLOW, and SS-31.) I am more THERE with it.
 
Hi @randompersonrandom re your above comment and mots-c, can I ask what dosage you ran and for how long before switching to mots-c? Reason being, I'm very active, I train 5x times a week and run twice per week, have no energy issues - when I started mots-c about 10days ago, I noticed an instant effect on my performance and energy.
I'm wondering whether I actually would need to/would be any better off running SS31 first, as a chat with ChatGPT (I know I know) seems to suggest I wouldn't be that good a candidate/probably don't need it. Mots-c is running about £30 per week in the UK (2x 5mg doses), whereas SS31 would be £315 per week (!!!) at 7x10mg daily doses, so SS31 is stupid expensive, even more than Tesa.

 
I keep it simple. T-20 would be 2ml. That way 10 units=1mg. 2.5mg would be 25units.

That being said if I was taking like 15mg maybe I would look at changing that. I only take 40 units 2x weekly.
