My Reta came clumped up in 1 big clump

[imtiredofbeingfat]

First time receiving peptides, is it normal for the product to get clumped up into one big piece inside the vials like that? I tried rotating the package put some will just stay stuck or move down but stay in one clump. Just wanted to know before I reconstitute.

 

[DaddyBigRig]

Yeah man, totally normal.

 

[imtiredofbeingfat]

Yeah man, totally normal.

okay thank you

Just jumping in here so there's more than one person reassuring you that it's okay to use : )

(caveat: that's assuming you purchased from a "reputable" vendor – by which I mean a vendor who many of us have used and who has a track record of decent product.)

 

[raw_oyster_eater]

people think it must be in 1 big clump. i don't agree.

 

[Nmc110662]

If you not familiar with the puck in the vial I do not believe you are not ready to go Gray or you did not do enough homework.

I did a lot of research weeks into ordering, and I have not read or watched anything about this specific situation. How would I have discovered this before ordering? Also you said you do not believe I am not ready to go gray, so you're saying I am ready. I'm so confused lol

I purchased from Nexaph from what i've seen, everyone has good things to say about Nexaph

they're fine. everybody's ready.

just do it.

 

[imtiredofbeingfat]

just do it.

Yup planning on starting later today, wish me luck.

 

[Super Trips]

if you dont want it you can send it my way.

how many mg in vial how much bac are you going to put in and what is your planned dose in units or cc?

i'll double check you.

Yeah, you're gonna be just fine 🤗

PS Excited for you 💜

Just want to throw in my reassurance as well. Totally normal to receive a puck. Sometimes, some peps will be a little less solid inasmuch as the puck might have broken a bit on the way to you, but ordinarily, pucks are what you're going to see with lyophilized products.

Just go slow - check a few different calculators to triple check your calculations, and even take up Oyster on his offer to check your calcs as well.

In a few months, this whole process will be old hat to you.

Plan -
Start at .5mg for 2 weeks

Go to 1mg a week for 2 weeks

1 - 2 months 2mg (weekly), depending on appetite/weight loss stay here or move up

2-3 months go to 4mg weekly, can't say much further than that because everyone's different. So not sure what type of results will come. Then, just try and find a good maintenance dose, my guess would be anywhere from 5-8mg weekly

Anyway I appreciate the help with the reassurance. I am reconstituting a 6mg vial for 2 doses of .5mg then for around 2 doses of 1mg and I plan on adding 3ml of BAC water (I am not sure if this is to much for the small vial otherwise I'll do 2) but 3 makes it so I just need to pull the syringe to 25 which makes it easier for me.

Also should I store the remaining kit in the freezer or should it be fine just in my room? Not sure about the time period of when you should freeze the product or not

I wasn't familiar until I started reconstituting. I give OP credit for stopping and asking before proceeding.

check your heart rate before you start then frequently thereafter. put the powder form in the freezer and the liquid in the fridge. your dosing is correct for what you intend to do. if it works well for you, no need to go up in dose until you feel loss of effect.

Yeah. It should lyophilize into one clump but there's no reason to believe anything bad happens when the puck breaks up in shipping or whatever.

Hello and welcome. By your equation 6mg plus 3ml of Bac (300 units) = 50 units on syringe for 1mg. So yes, 25 units on syringe is .5mg.

Broken, crumbled, solid, powdered "pucks" or "cakes" are normal. Any concerns you have can be researched using the search function (when it likes your input query)

No one gave you a picture, so I figured I'd give you an example of one of my kits from them. 🫡

Edit: @nonyabizznez beat me while I searched my camera roll!

The vials you got will hold juuuuust over 3ml so you'll be fine! And yes, freezer for the extras.

6mg
.5+.5+1+1=3
Then you have 1 1/2 2mg doses. I'd do the 1mg a third week, just to use the entire vial.

Edit: 3ml for 6mg means 1/4 ml for a .5 dose.

Thanks for the reply, just did my first injection I was so nervous lol. I held the needle next to my stomach for like 2 minutes before I finally had the balls to do it. I've never had to prick myself before. On top of it, a research chemical I ordered on the internet that says not for human consumption lmfao. Hope all this research and time will pay off

Thank you, mine looked like this but more broken up. Probably from shipping and because I haven't froze them yet. Appreciate the pic

Yeah might as well lol

It takes ~4 weeks to build up in your system, anyway. You're moving up at a weird schedule. Reta, right? Or tirz?

 

[imtiredofbeingfat]

Thank you so much, to everyone that replied to help and reassure me. It genuinely means a lot to me. Thanks again I appreciate it <3 Now I'm going to go eat some pizza before this shit starts working 😂

Yes Reta, the reply I made saying the schedule was more a less a rough estimate. I'm not 100% committed to that. It could all go out the window anyway it all depends on how it's working. Do you think that's to fast or to slow? How would you do it?

Well, the starting dose for reta is usually 1-2mg. So you're just being conservative- I don't think there's anything wrong with that, especially since some people are concerned by the heart rate. I've never tried reta, myself. Typically it takes 4 weeks for them to build up in your system.
