Generic vs Somatropin

**joemiller777** · 07-16-2009, 05:54 AM

I recently purchased a generic brand with blue caps ( no label ). When I reconstituted ,the white puck dissolved partially with some of it sticking to the wall. I had to shake the bottle to get it to dissolve and it took several shakes to accomplish. When I took Somatropoin 6 mnths ago this did not happen. The puck dissolved immediately and completely. Whats going on here? Is this normal for the generic brand? I was thinking possibly the generic had gone bad or maybe was left in the heat too long. Any thoughts or experiences are appreciated.

You should never shake your vial of growth, it can ruin the hormone. It's normal for it to not dissolve immediatly but instead of shaking it just gently swirl it around.

Exactly. You might have ruined it.

roll it back and forth in your hands it will disolve. Let the solution roll over the section that is stuff. You can sit it down for a little while and then do it agian. SOmetimes it can take awhile but don't shake it

you SHOOK it?

Have you done NO research on it first? With my pharmaceutical grade/Prescription of HGH it still took several minutes to dissolve 100% and I had to roll it the whole time. I would be more suspicious if it all dissolved immediately.

Yeah if you actually shook it there is a good chance you ruined it.
