Did I mess up my BAC water?

[Chill-Girl]

So, I ordered BAC water from an online shop, thinking it was the stuff made by Hospira. But what I got is labeled "Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride". It says it's distributed by Hospira, but the label isn't the same as the other stuff, which had a red/pink block and listed 0.9% Benzyl Alcohol.

Did I screw up my order? Can I still mix it with Reta? Or should I find the Hospira BAC with the reddish label? I'm just starting out and want to do things right.

Thanks!

I've read that sodium chloride BAC isn't the best with Reta. Check out this thread I found:

The store probably carries both types, but they might not show the labels to avoid problems. If you specifically ordered normal BAC water and they sent you the saline version, contact them and ask for a replacement. If you accidentally ordered the saline BAC, I'm not sure what to tell you. I've heard saline BAC and Reta don't mix well, so it might not be worth the hassle of returning it. But you could always save it for future research with other peptides.

Yep, it was my mistake. I've already ordered some of the regular BAC water and will keep the saline one for later.

Lesson learned!

Thanks!

I've used regular BAC for everything else so far. You didn't totally waste your money!

Hey Chill-Girl, I saw your post about BAC water. It's important to reconstitute correctly for optimal results. Have you used a peptide calculator before? It can help you figure out the right amount of BAC to add. There's a good one here on the other forum.

I agree with MyBro. Using a peptide calculator is crucial for accurate dosing. It eliminates guesswork and ensures you're getting the correct concentration. Here's a calculator for those who need it: Peptide Calculator

Thanks! I'll check that out.

Just wanted to add something I learned about sermorelin. For every 2 mg of sermorelin, use 1 ml of BAC water to reconstitute it. So, for a 5 mg vial, add 2.5 ml of BAC water. Then, if you are using an insulin syringe, every 5 units equals roughly 100 mcg.

That's a good tip! Also, keep in mind that with sermorelin, avoid eating carbs for about an hour before injecting, as they can interfere with its effectiveness.
