Safety Checklist
- 1Always use bacteriostatic water for reconstitution — never normal saline.
- 2Store reconstituted peptides in the fridge (2–8°C). Use within 4 weeks.
- 3Rotate injection sites to prevent lipodystrophy.
- 4Start with the lowest effective dose and titrate up.
- 5Get baseline bloodwork before starting any protocol.
- 6Use insulin syringes (29–31G) for subcutaneous injections.
- 7Never share vials or syringes.
- 8Source from vendors with third-party COAs — check purity ≥98%.
- 9Track side effects in a journal or use the bloodwork tracker.
- 10Cycle on/off — most peptides should not be used indefinitely.
