Mixing peps in one vial?

Hey everyone,

So, I feel kinda dumb even asking this, but here goes... I'm getting some pep A, like 80mg, and wanna combine it with pep B for the wife. Is that cool? I've never mixed different peps in one vial after reconstituting. Seems like it *should* work fine since the solutions are mixed, but wanted to check if anyone's done this.

Also, the math is confusing me. Say I have 80mg of pep A and 10mg of pep B. I add 1ml of BAC to each. Now I have 80mg/ml of A and 10mg/ml of B. Then, after making those solutions, I mix both into a single vial (assuming no loss). Now I have 2ml total. So, is pep A now 40mg/ml and pep B 5mg/ml? Am I getting this right?

And if I add another vial, say another 10mg of pep B with 1ml BAC, so now I have 3ml total in the vial, would pep A be around 26.6mg/ml and pep B be at 6.6mg/ml?

If I'm right about the first example, to dilute it to a 'normal' level, I'd add say 2ml more of BAC, then pep A would be 20mg/ml and pep B would be 2mg/ml.

Thanks for any help!
 
I keep putting off mixing my peptides because it seems complicated!

I saw something recently that said we shouldn't mix peptides at all, so I'm thinking about just using separate pens for each. More injections, though!
 
I guess I could just mix them in the syringe right before. Doesn't bother me either way, I just want to minimize how many shots she has to do. Wish I could get a supplier to make a custom blend for me, like 40mg of pep A and 15mg of pep B. They'd totally do that for just one, right? lol
 
Your math seems right to me. An easier method might be just drawing from the original vials at the ratio you'll inject. If you have vial X and vial Y reconstituted as usual, draw them into a syringe at your daily dose ratio. Say, 12 units of X and 8 units of Y. Squirt that into a sterile vial. That's one dose, so check for cloudiness or anything that looks wrong. If it's bad, you only wasted one dose. If it looks good, refrigerate overnight and check again for shelf life issues. If it still looks good, fill the vial with that ratio.

For instance, if I added 120 units of X and 80 units of Y, I'd have 10 days worth of injections. It's like meal prepping!

Each day you draw 20 units.

Later, you can reconstitute at a higher concentration if the volume is too high for your daily injection.
 
A multi-peptide calculator might help. I use one online that gives you more accuracy since you can use the actual amounts in each vial (i.e. a 45mg vial of pep A that really tests as 56mg) for your mixes.
 
I just got my first vial of GH pep mix and it came already reconstituted. I didn't know until I was home and went to mix it. I hope they shipped it cold, but it shipped to my doctor and they had it at room temp. Is that normal?

That's a good point. I always figure freshness is key.

Yeah, some places do that. One pharmacy told me that some peps need to be shipped separate then mixed right before using, others are OK premixed. Wish there was a list of how all of them should be handled.

I was considering using acetic acid instead of bac water for my peptides. I heard it might give a longer shelf life, especially for some of the IGF peptides, but I can't find any hard data on that.

Interesting! I always just use BAC. I wonder if it's worth switching?
 
You can do whatever you want, but everyone's gonna tell you it's a dumb idea. Receptor burnout isn't a real thing. When you still have tons of room to increase your actual dose, mixing compounds makes no sense.
 
Check your pen—1.5ml usually means you get 8 doses at 0.25mg each, but the starter kit only has 4 needles. Grab cheap extras and use the remaining doses. Just don't store opened pens too long—about 56 days max once you start using them.
 
Mixing in one vial works if the peptides are compatible in BAC water, which most are. Main downside is losing independent dose control - if you need to adjust one, you remake the whole thing. Stability window shortens when compounds share a vial. If you're dosing both consistently together, convenient. If you might need independent dosing later, keep separate vials.
 
GHK-Cu and hyaluronic acid are compatible topically. Standard practice - no compatibility issues. Keep refrigerated after mixing.
 
Mixing works if stability profiles are compatible - pH matters and both should be lyophilized powders reconstituted together, not solutions combined.
