    Will NaCL Sodium Chloride for reconstitution fvck up my IGF?

    I ordered 2 vials of IGF from Lion and the instructions said to reconstitute with the provided Sodium Chloride. I am reading everywhere from every place that sells it that it need to be reconstituted in AA. That the IGF imediatly start losing its potency and breaking down in the sodium chloride. Can someone shed some light on this for me? If AA is the proper way to reconstitute then why would Lion send NaCL when they sell AA to begin with?

    AA is the proper way to reconstitute. The NaCl is for diluting the IGF-1/AA mixture just prior to injection. If you don't dilute (at least 3-4 times as much NaCl as IGF-1/AA) the injection will hurt more than you can possibly imagine.

    What I would like to know is how fast NaCl degrades the IGF-1. THe reason I want to know that is because I would like to pre-load some syringes for post workout injections, and if the NaCl degrades the IGF-1 quickly I guess preloading would be a bad idea.

    ANyone else have any insight on this?

    THe sodium Chloride is as stable as AA . It is recomended by the manufacturer. It is fine. We wouldn't be providing it for use if it wasn't right.
