Zippity once said he prefers not having AAS sourcing chat on the forum. It looks like the convo has run its course anyway — if you have more questions about this vendor and their payment methods, I’m sure the vendor would be happy to answer them for you. Thanks

What are ampules? And do the sell glp1?

This is both very funny and sad at the same time
I hope it'll stay "easy" and "cheap" for everyone, especially newcomers, but my hope aren't high

Ampules are small glass vials (usually of a single dose) that are opened by breaking the glass apart:
Ampoule - Wikipedia
They are ideal for sterility, but even some nurses don't like to deal with them (from what I read).
The Indian pharmacies do sell GLP-1s, usually as an injectable, but at a much higher price than Chinese sources for recon, including domestic vendors like Nexaph and PGB.
For example, they sell brand-name and generic/compounded injectable tirz:

Like $41.50 (plus shipping) for a single 5-mg injection of brand-name Mounjaro. And $71 for a no-name 10-mg injection of tirz.
For sema, they mostly sell tablets, which get poor/mixed reviews on Reddit.

Also glass ampules must be drawn up with a filter needle, least you get glass shards in your syringe and then in your meat.Ampules are small glass vials (usually of a single dose) that are opened by breaking the glass apart:

I agree. But even filtering seems much less effective than I thought:
Just the idea of injecting even the smallest particle of glass even subq is extremely offputting 🙂 I would only buy vials, which sometimes cost the same compared to also buying filters at over $1 each.
Ampoule - Wikipedia
A 2016 study of 180 ampoules found 19,473 glass particles in aspirated fluids, with filtering only reducing the mean by 114 to 89 particles per ampoule.

I’ve been to several countries that use ampules and I’ve never seen a single person use a filter.
i may or may not be guilty as charged, and may or may not have lived to tell the tale.

Well, "must" might have been a strong word to use. Its a good idea to use a filter needle with glass ampules. Just saying as a ER RN.

I don’t disagree. But after a few years injecting mystery powder from anonymous overseas sources it becomes silly to really worry about best practices aimed at edge case problems. A particle of glass small enough to be sucked into a 32ga syringe probably poses far less of a risk than the sketchy vial of whatsitcalled purchased from whatshisface.

And even the drive home is relatively dangerous too. So it is for me just the idea of glass going inside one's body. Seems like something from a horror movie, even if you can't see any particles after snapping open the ampule.

I very rarely use them anymore. Only a few things come in glass ampules now. But when I did in the past, we always had to used a filter needle to draw it up. Also, opening glass ampules are the only times I cut my fingers drawing up meds. They tell you to crack the ampule using a alcohol pad to avoid that happening. Young and dumb, I didn't.

Agreed, a 32 gauge needle is a filter unto itself. I usually am dealing with nothing smaller than 21 gauge when working with glass ampules.
My wife works as an RN for a hospital(US). She says they are required to use a filter when drawing from an ample to keep any glass out. Just another data point.
I’m sure it is a best practice for a good reason. For me, by the time you buy the drug, then the filters, extra syringes and vials to transfer, you could have just gone to a clinic and paid for the shot. Everyone has their own risk tolerance and I respect that. Theoretically, any glass particles would either sink to the bottom of the liquid (I never get it all out) or be too large for a 27g - 31g needle, so it’s worth the risk to me.
In my mind, the filter process also adds a lot more touches and potential for contamination.

It was over my WhatsApp... from ZLZ... I've not bought from them though I have read a bunch about them.

They use filter needles, basically the filter is built-in, you don't see it
How would it filter in both flow directions? Wouldn’t they need to change the needle?
The integrated-filter needle is used to draw, then replaced with a regular needle for injecting
Can you get them in small gauges? This has me intrigued. I’m not seeing anything in the usual places.
It's not my field, but they're called "blunt filter needles" and seem to all be 18 gauge ... but then you can swap it out for a high-gauge regular needle
I have watched some videos and read a little. I’m still willing to take my chances. Thank you for the information!
Good, we are better off without those fraudsters. I won’t let a mention of ZLZ pass by without mentioning that they shipped me and some friends thousands of dollars in bad cagri, said they would replace, strung us along, and ultimately decided to ghost us.
Don’t buy from ZLZ.
