I want to reconstitute some GHK-Cu 50mg later today and plan on using 6mL BAC both to make my unit dose not super small and to mitigate some of the sting. I plan on using a pen, so 3mL is the max I can load into a cartridge. For the other 3mL, I could load those into a second cartridge or…

Store it in a 3mL vial, and then when my current cartridge is done, reload from the vial to the cartridge. Why and I thinking of this? To save on cartridge use: I have a lot of sterile 3mL vials and not that many cartridges. I buy carts from goodlifesupplies because I trust their sterility, but I also will have to pay a shipping fee to get more since I don’t have any big orders coming up. My main concern would be the sterility of putting the aliquot into my just-finished cartridge since pen needles are double sided. But if that’s a valid concern, wouldn’t there be sterility problems during the use of cartridges in general, especially toward the end?

Is this vial storage idea frugal problem solving or insomnia-induced idiocy?😜
 
You really should not be reusing vials or cartridges. They both get pierced every time you inject, and the recommended practice it to discard them after 28 days of use (but most people use them till they are used up).
