Stinging/Burning with Amopure

just to add, my relative’s RS who tried Amo T30 and experienced prolonged burning on first dose, did NOT have issues on the second dose from the same vial (1-week apart).

My RS will try R10 again this Wednesday and will see if the burning is still present from same vial.

lol, my RS is on Wednesday too with R10 2nd shot. Looks like our RS are in this together!

Is the only reason that there is L60 just for having more and in theory using less liquid because you would dilute it? Just wondering

Or if you are ok stretching for 6 weeks for RS, can work with 10mg as well.
 
I posted this in the amopure test thread but I’ll add it here where people are discussing burning:
Order a T30 kit mid-August. Shipped from Texas location. Blue cap, clean pucks, vacuum sealed. Reconstituted with Hospira BAC. Clear, colorless. pH 7. Injected 2.5mg with no burn. Hoping more on this batch have the same no burn experience and whatever the problem was has been sorted out on their end

Can you elaborate on your symptoms other than the burning? Not saying I don't believe you, but it would be good to have another point of data for those that experienced issues.

Broke out in cold sweat, nausea, weak, dizzy, dry heaving. Not my first time taking either. Was trying something new. 20 units.10 mg vial.

I have no idea how much 20 units is without knowing how much bac you reconstituted with (sorry if you mentioned this in an earlier comment). Did you up your dose or take the same dose as you did with other suppliers? Most of those symptoms may manifest when people titrate up too fast. I've heard that the smaller mg vials tend to be overfilled more often than the larger mg vials, which could contribute to unintentionally taking a larger dose than expected. We wont know if that's the case unless someone with lower mg vials sends one in for testing though. Still doesn't explain the stinging.

100 units of bac. 2.5 mg. I haven't increased dosage.
 
Just wanted to chime in and add my experience to the pile. Ordered T60 on labor day and RS just got around to using it this morning. Fresh Hospira BAC and vile had good vacuum. No stinging or adverse affects of any kind.
 
I have also experienced the intense stinging. My order of L10 arrived on 8/27. I am in the maintenance phase of my journey so dosing every 10-14 days depending on how I am feeling. Stung like nothing I’ve ever experienced. No redness or lasting reaction and I feel like overall the product worked. Five of us shared 12 boxes. Only 2 of us had started it and we both experienced the sting. I figured it has to be whatever they are using as filler?

Are you feeling concerned about it? I am not sure what to make of this stinging issue.

Why not reach out to AmoPure and talk to them about it? They are obviously aware of the issue.

Finally opened my L60, late August delivery, and researched on two subjects, separately.

When asked one "did it sting?", pat came the reply " how did you know?".

The second one said it felt "hot" on the site for 20-30 minutes immediately afterwards.

No change in dosage, hospira bac, and same needles. Moved from Red Rock to Amopure.

Amopure won't tell what's driving it.

Not sure of they know exactly or it probably would have been fixed.. They won't seem to tell what filler is being used ..could be a filler issue but who knows 🤷‍♂️

Yikes! I know a lot of people recently got their mid-late August shipped 60mg from Amo tested, and everything came back looking good (I know that's not an indication of stinging, just mentioning it). After the test came back, many people have been using it and reported no more stinging, and so thought that issue was resolved. But, it sounds like you're saying it's just inconsistent from batch to batch?

Maybe someone who got in on that group test could weigh in.

Anyone’s order shipped from Franklin Park, IL? R10 or T60.

Yes, my first shipment (from anywhere) says shipped from Franklin Park, IL—8 days from order to delivery in Dallas.

I got T5 and took my first dose of 2.5mg a few days ago with zero stinging. First self-injection ever! I will definitely reorder from Amopure and hope they expand their inventory.

5 days between "awaiting item" and " arrived at origin facility" means it was likely international shipping and not actually shipped *from* there. That's just when USPS finally got their hands on the package. For international shipping that's pretty speedy! I believe their domestic warehouse is actually in New Braunfels TX, as my order had left the origin facility within 24 hours.
 
I ordered a kit of L60 and C10 from amopure while it was 40% off for Labor Day. I haven’t tried the L60 yet, but literally minutes ago took a 1mg dose of the C10 and it burned like hell. I’m now a bit nervous to try the L60 now.

Cagrilintide burns anyways. I bought a bottle from astropeptidesusa and it will light you up. I used my L60 from labor day and it's not an issue. Definitely test it out soon

I purchased Cagri from Skye prior to this and never had this issue.

I need to try them. Astropeptidesusa even with hospira burns but it definitely works like a charm. I don't mind the burn to get the suppression it gives
 
If it didn't ship from New Braunfels TX, it originated in China.
 
T30 arrived 8/8, shipped from TX. Fresh Hospira, dissolved quickly, clear solution , vacuum sealed.
No sting for 2 separate injections of 2.5 and 3. No burning, pain, or adverse reactions. Unsure about appetite suppression so far because I just ate a pepperoni calzone (yes it was delicious) and finished the whole thing when it was not possible before. Maybe it is time for a larger dose.
 
I don’t think testing has anything to do with the stinging

I don’t think testing has anything to do with the singing because that’s not what it’s tested for. Kits that have been stinging tested just fine so it’s not a volume or purity question.

No, sorry. I wasn't implying the testing could find the cause of the stinging. I was more trying to say that a bunch of people just had vials tested and were likely waiting to start using them until the tests came back. Now that the test is back, there's a fairly large sample size of people who've just broken into their bottles, but it doesn't seem like that's caused a new rash of complaints about the stinging.
 
May the stinging be due to the PH? I tested mine, it's here somewhere. I have had stinging from amazon insulin injectors. The needle is so thin it warps when drawing up the peptide. I have had stinging from the same vial not in any order 1st week 2nd 3rd or only one but with tz at least 1. Maybe my injection site technique. I still have a discolored abdomen patch from 6 weeks ago that itched like crazy, and scratched it to death so therefore .....Point is, I react sometimes half the time, same pep always hospira bac, now trying a pen which I would love if it did not leak. What we must put up with for these health enhancing meds is for me now worth it. YMMV.

Just curious...
Which amazon injector are you using?
Which needles?
Where and how much is it leaking?

I got some from PepPens and love them so far. I have read the smaller the needle size the longer you have to leave the needle inserted to allow the peptide to disperse and dissipate the back pressure. I leave my inserted for 15 seconds after injecting and only have a tiny small drop of fluid on the tip of the needle when I withdraw it.

Do the pep pens automatically insert the needle too, or does it just disperse the selected dose?

What do you mean about automatically inserting the needle?

I absolutely love the "insulin" pen I use. Got it off AliExpress for about $17.
After you load the cartridge once each time you add a needle to the end. You then use the dial to select how many units. When you are ready to give the injection you push it in.

It is very easy to use and you are not injecting yourself with the same needle that you just used to draw up your dose - something I absolutely HATE doing and refuse to do if at all possible.

Pen I bought:

Needles I bought:

I think I will make a separate post on this as I feel others could use this info in a place where it can be found.

No. You have to insert it manually but I don't even feel it. I am using the 31g x 8mm Medfine needles that I got from Peppens when I placed my order for the pens
Peppens is just one of many websites selling Chinese injection pens.

Check out the Peppen thread
It has links to videos and some discussion on them. When the pens are on sale you can get them for $15 each. 🙂
