How to reconstitute, step by step

Personalized to the numbers above. General technique — follow your provider's guidance and your product's instructions.

1. 1
   Gather your supplies

   Peptide vial, bacteriostatic water, alcohol prep pads, and an insulin syringe. Wash your hands and clean your work surface.
2. 2
   Bring vials to room temperature

   Let the peptide and water vials sit out until they're no longer cold. Wipe both rubber stoppers with a fresh alcohol pad.
3. 3
   Draw the bacteriostatic water

   Draw 2 mL of bacteriostatic water into a syringe.
4. 4
   Add water slowly down the vial wall

   Insert the needle into the 5 mg peptide vial at an angle and let the water run slowly down the inside glass — don't spray directly onto the powder.
5. 5
   Swirl gently — never shake

   Gently swirl or let it sit a few minutes until fully dissolved. Shaking can damage the peptide. The solution should turn clear.
6. 6
   Store it cold and dark

   Keep reconstituted peptide refrigerated at 2–8 °C, away from light. Note the date — most stay stable for several weeks.
7. 7
   Draw your dose

   Wipe the stopper, then draw to 10 units on your U-100 syringe for a 250 mcg dose. Rotate sites and use a fresh sterile needle each time.
