    Is it bad to combine testosterone from multiple vials?

    Random, maybe stupid question, is it bad to combine testosterone from multiple vials? I get 4 1ml vials per month and I always have basically .3 ml left in every vials. I keep all of my testosterone stuff in a big basket on the counter and I just toss the vial in the bottom of the basket. Last night I realized I hadn't refilled my script this month so I decided to just combine like 30 partial vials into a few full ones. I cleaned all the tops with alcohol pads and just used a single syringe to do the combination process. Anyway, I started to think today that it might be a bad idea for contamination or something? I haven't had any adverse effects from my shot and it's been like 15 hours. Anyway, probably a dumb question but I thought I'd ask

    Nah man its safe.
    Just swab and use clean sterile practices.

    Gear is fairly germicidal because of the benzyl alcohol in it.

    the Benzyl Alcohol also doesn't do much for rat poison or cyanide . if you got yeast, fungus, or rat poison in your prescription bottles of test then you may have a pretty good lawsuit case.
    otherwise , yes combine all you want

    I'd be lying if I said this didn't give me a good chuckle

    Assuming this is standard prescription grade preserved T, there should be no problem.

    How will I know if it is "preserved"? Will it say on the bottle? Or should I just ask the pharmacy?

    Usually there's an insert or other information provided with the script. It should list all of the excipients. If not, you should be able to do a Google search and find the insert with a few key strokes.

    If it's coming from a pharmacy you've got nothing to worry about.

    I got about a dozen empty ugl vials with tinu bits in them.

    I'm going to sit down one day and suck up all the last drops and use that shot to kick start my next cycle.

    I just shot more gear today than most will use in trt for months.

    No AI

    How do I manage these estrogen levels?
    Should I take 5mg of Arimidex EOD or 5.125376mg?

    It’s safe, but I suggest against it unless both vials are from the same lab. That way you know what’s what.

    You know damn well it's 5.257839

    Then you're supposed to round up to the nearest ten thousand then divide bye molecular weight of aramidex the multiply by molecular weight if arimidex .
