Accidentally mixed too much sterile water

[Fraser]

Hi guys,

I accidentally mixed just under 5ml sterile water with my 30mg vial of melanotan.

I'm looking to start with the lowest dosage, 0.25.

The math is beyond me! Can anyone advise how many units to inject?

Thanks

I normaly mix 2ml in a 10ml of MT2 , then .250 is equal to 5 units .

Are you sure it's a 30mg vial?

At 30mg per 5ml that works out as 6mg per ml. Or 600mcg per 100 units.

With that in mind 4 units is 240mcg and 5 units is 300mcg.

Sorry! It's a 10mg vial mixed with 5ml sterile water

[peptideguru]

Okay, in that case;

10mg per 5ml
2mg per ml

2000mcg per 100 units.
Or 20mcg per unit.
The easiest option is 12 units for 240mcg.

That might be somewhat uncomfortable, consider deviding into two shot sites.
I intentionally mix lower than many so my shots are smaller.
More than about 20u is going to make a lump for a little while and that can
suck.
Depends on your fat percentage I guess.

Thanks for your advice guys. I've been using 12 units and it's really fine, a tiny bump sometimes.

I am thinking it's time to double my dosage though which might get more painful.

As I said, I have gone so far as to use 50u in a 10mg vial, that makes 5u=1mg of melanotan2.
All this 'math is confusing' stuff is simple if you keep a common measurement.
That being the 'unit' in a 100 unit or 50u or I use 30u (3/10ml)
I reconstitute with a 50u or 100u syringe. 100u of water = 1mg per 10u.

Yeah, that's why I try to start off with the mg/ml units and convert them over to mcg/ml units, makes things easier to understand!

Try it and see if you can do it.
If not, and you have enough needles use two sites. I wouldn't recommend using the same needle for two injections; if you really must then withdraw the entire amount into the needle, inject, then reinject. Never place a used needle back into your vial.
However, when you can pick up 10 needles for about £4 you have absolutely no reason to do this.
