HOSPIRA changes in availability

[peptideusername]

one of the places I order from is still $6 a vial. I just ordered 10. I know we all love Hospira but if it goes away there is other legitimate bac water. We are all acting like anything else is straight from the toilet bowl.

Where else can you find pharmacy grade bacteriostatic water that isn't Pfizer hospira?

I just ordered a box 😄

MEDEX $220ish today 😔

I think it’s hilarious that if it goes away completely folks are just going to say “oh that’s it I guess” no more meds for me!

I think its funny that you straw manned and side stepped that question at the same time.

I’m not here to explain myself to the likes of rando forum posters who I don’t give two flying f—ks about. How’s that?

Maybe I don’t give two shits if it’s pharmacy grade as long as it’s sterile and works? But by all means if folks just want to stop reconstituting, give up on their meds and gain all their weight back and other ailments go ahead

The crazy thing to me is the Hospira saline BAC is the same low price as before, so relatively few must be buying it, even now. It's not for all peptides but is arguably ideal (comfort-wise) for some applications like GLP-1s.

The cost for Hospira saline BAC is only $3.40 per 30mL bottle at AmscoMedical.com.

So you're just here to put words in people's mouth and yell at them? Sounds fun.

I imagine if there becomes significant demand for BAC water and customers make it clear they'll pay for good stuff and not the shitty stuff, the Chinese sources will be able to deliver quality product.

Right now there's just not any pressure for them to do it. But the whole "making peptides and lyophilizing them" thing is way harder than sterilizing, adding BA to, and adjusting the pH of water.

It’s harder to make than it would seem. I’ve had to throw out 30 qsc bac waters because of white crap floating around in it, and a bunch of XCE bac water because it was very acidic (apparently they washed the plugs in acid to sterilize them and ooopsie doopsie it got in the finished product). It’s these types of issues that led everyone to start using Hospira.

If key supplies like bacteriostatic water become unavailable, or just significantly harder to get, it would be very unfortunate. Newcomers already have a lot to learn, imagine them needing to get a pressure canner and learn sterile techniques for making BAC on top of everything else. And while making safe BAC does seem practical, it is still an added risk.

I just ordered a case from AMSCO. The extra expense sucks but even so, this lifestyle is still a crazy deal.

You make a good point. Even at 250/case, that case will last most people for several years. Some of us were spending more than that monthly when we started with compounded glp1s.
