    LR3 IGF-1 Extra Acetic Acid or Benzyl Alchohol

    (1) I am acquiring 1mg of IGF-1 LR3 for research and comes premixed with either 1ml Acetic Acid (AA) or Benzyl Alcohol (BA). (This is the full 1mg mixed in 1ml). The company says that it is better mixed with BA. Though from reading several posts Acedic Acid seems to pop up everywhere. Any views on this.

    (2) Is it possible to add more Benyl Alcohol or Acetic Acid (depending on what it comes in) to make measuring the stuff easier or will this ruin it. I have seen places where you get 2ml of AA for reconstruction.

    (3) It would be alot easier in my eyes to add a further 9ml and then you have 100mcg per ml so I could then use a standard 1ml syringe, which would enable me also to use a longer needle. But after reading several posts I have not seen anywhere that suggests this. Would doing that ruin it then?

    (4) I also have Bacteriostatic Water, which I will put in the syringe only to reduce the burn. Maybe put some BW in first, then the IGF-1 and then some more BW.

    Thanks in advance

    from my understanding, may need to get vets to comment better on this but the AA is better to use as it keeps the pH where the igf-1 likes it, so would say thats the best stuff to use, but the Bac water will keep the igf-1 good enough for about 4weeks,

    the 1mg vial should last you 25days at 40mcg so if ure doing 5 on 2 off this will be your 4wks course. Im not sure if im totally correct but thats my understanding, Vets correct me if im worng or enhance on parts if im correct.

    this thread may help you out:

    Thanks for that. I am going to use it only 3 times a week straight after training. Will def use AA instead of BA now. I am also thinking of not buying the premixed form now as I have been told on another forum that its useless like this and possible a scam.

    Does anyone know if there is a limit to the amount of AA that can be mixed with the IGF?

    Thanks again

    there is no real "limit" to the amount of AA being used but i wouldn't exceed 2-3mL

    AA has a nice sting to it, no need to be injecting so much into your body. with 2mL of AA, each '10' mark is 50mcg out of a 1mg vial of LR3
