    Storing IGF

    I have decided to go with the LR3 IGF,probably from the sponsor so if one of you guys reads this itd be nice for you to help...

    -I read the sticky and Im under the impression I can keep the IGF kept at room temperature and it will not be affected for around 2 years? is this reconstituted or not? I am planning to order it soon but will not start use for another month?let me know if that is a bad idea

    -next,i do not feel comfortable ordering this without knowing EXACTLY how to reconstitute it...i dont understand exactly what comes with it-1 bottle with 1000 mcg of IGF-1 LR3 and 1 mL of solution..what is the "solution"?..and i thought it came with 10 ml of solution...someone please explain how all that works,i have gone back like 15 pages of archives trying to figure this out,would like to just have it answered here

    You guys like pushing your products (AR,SP),which im cool with,id do the same,but how bout some help here?

    Just to show I have done my searches, my basic idea is to mix 2ml of the AA solution (.6 %) with the IGF, roll it in my hands,then draw it and put it in the 10 ml vial.then add the remaining 8 ml.that means 100mcg per ml correct?thanks bros,i just want to figure this out and get going

    The 1ml of solution is probably acetic acid.

    You draw up the aa in a slin pin, insert it into the vial of igf and let it dribble down the side of the vial. Avoid letting it drop directly onto the igf.

    Once the solution is in the igf withdraw the pin and gentle roll the vial around until the igf dissolves into the solution. Do not shake the vial.

    From here dosing your igf depends on your slin pin. If your pins are numbered 10, 20, 30 up to 100 and there are 5 notches between each number than each notch is 2IU which is 20mcg per notch.

    If your slin pin is numbered by 5s with 5 notches between each than each notch is 10mcg per notch.

    Figure out which you are using and you can decide how to dose from there.

    I store mine in the frig even though research says that this is probably not needed it doesn't hurt to be cautious.

    1 mL of acetic acid is enough solution to take 25 injections of 40 mcg? I feel like ive read I need to use 10 ml of acetic acid (.6%,white vinegar?),therefore one mL is 100mcg? maybe i have my mg's,ml's,mcg's,all screwed up

    Yes. 1ml aa + 1000mcg igf is a 1000mcg/ml solution. Divide that up 25 times and you get 40mcg doses.

    You can make the solution stronger or weaker but that is really up to you. With this solution you can draw up 2 notches with a 100IU pin to get 40mcg.

    Ok that sounds pretty simple..and about the BW, should I withdraw some ticks of it in the same syringe to lessen the sting of injection? I know not to put the BW in the vial with the reconstituted IGF beacuse it will shorten the life of it or somethin like that,just know not to do it if I want it to last.

    Many say to fill the rest of the pin with bw after drawing up your dose.

    I just draw an equal amount of bw. This makes it easy for me to dose bilaterally.

    Thanks man,that is pretty much laid out for me...one last question,maybe redundant..if i am not able to refridgerate,do i need to reconstitute it ASAP until i use it and just store it as cool as possible,or should i wait to reconstitute it until its time to use?

    will be ordering within next couple days,but wont be taking first injection for 1 month exactly,so prob will be with me for about 2 1/2 weeks until I begin use

    I believe the powder should be as stable, if not more so, than the reconstituted solution. I have kept powder in my fridge for up to a month without reconstituting.
