Trouble with 1ml vial

**Lil_matt** · 05-05-2010, 09:01 AM

Have got testosterone in a 1ML vial nd it seems like u have to break it to get into it... Dont want to waste it by smashing it.... Any help

Um, if it's a vial you don't want to break it.

If it's an AMP, however, you'll want to score the neck and snap off the top.

if it looks like a mini bowling pin thats called an amp. scratch the glass around the neck "the skinny part" then just snap the top off. after you load you syringe change out the needle cuz poking it around in the bottom of the glass amp when your trying to suck up all your gear will dull the s#$t out of it.

at most pharmacies u can pick up an amp opener! its like a saw to score the neck and a bottle opener looking end!

**Someguy123** · 05-05-2010, 11:42 AM

ive never needed to score an ampule, if im holding it right. grip below the neck, by wrapping your fore fingers around it, then use your thumb to push forward, and snap the head off. but wrap it in a tissue first, in case the head shatters.

wait til u get one that shatters in ur hand! even with the tissue around it!

just make sure that the upper portion the one u r going to break is empty apparently you can have test in their if u tilt it side ways then say ur prayers and hit it at the line and it should break easily or u can get edmen2 advise into getting opener. ur choice.
I endup ruining 2 before I get the hang of it lucky me I had unlimited supply of test

ya its happened plenty of times. just try and hold the tissue so you dont spill glass everywhere.

Its an AMP. You need to get a sharp file and lightly score the neck,,then they snap off cleanly.

**Hard.On** · 05-05-2010, 08:07 PM

just make sure you score it

Lol at the "mini bowling pin" reference.

Yeah its an amp. Im yet to open my amps of sust.. but ive read best method is to take a steak knife and give it a few indents on each of the sides ... then it should snap off.

Anyone with more info on opening amps would save me an hour or so of research when opening mine. But the knife sounds good.. lacerate all the sides and then it should snap off.

**thisbmine** · 05-05-2010, 08:56 PM

I live in astralia. Just called my pharmacist re amp cutter. He's unfortunately never heard of it.

But he claims theyre easy to open and even sells sus to various customers (on script) and they just lacerate the head of the amp and then pop it off with their thumb. He did suggest using a tissue and doing it away from the body (duh).

most hospitals dont use amps anymore but i never realized the advances in the openers. check out this link it may come in handy for u amp users!

neva had to score an amp, if you get a stubborn one just keep revolving it whilst applying pressure and it will snap at the weak point

**Someguy123** · 05-06-2010, 09:41 PM

some of them have a colored dot on the head. and that is the point where you would put your thumb to apply pressure. i dont know if theyre pre-scored or not. but they snap incredibly easy, if your thumb is in the right spot.

the easiest way to open an amp, which also allows for easier aspiration with a small gauge needle is to place the amp in hot water for about a minute.

take out. have a dry wash cloth and place amp within. with a firm grasp at the base with your right hand, simply take your left fingers (top of amp still within the cloth) and break.

its so easy. no scoring necessary! just be very technical in your procedure. after awhile. ITS EASY!
