    Please help me with dosage - Phizer HGH

    the prodict is a 2 chamber 12mg cartridge (I dont have the pen so I manually mixed it)
    12 mg/ml (approx 36 iu)
    I am using a 100 unit insulin needle

    I want to do 2iu per day

    What mark to I pull to on this syringe?

    My math came out to 2.7 units = 1iu (100 units in the syringe)

    Thanks for the help!!

    I'm a bit confused on your description...

    how much bac water did you use to reconstitute it?

    take your total volume of bac water used and divide by how many IU's are in the vial.. this will give you IU/ml

    A 100unit slin pin = 1ml

    So say you used 4.5ml of bac water n mixed with 36 IU.. your dosing will be 8iu/ml
    If you want to use 2 IU, you'd use 1/4ml or 25 units on your slin pin

    hope that helps

    I don't know how much water. It wasn't marked. What ever comes in that 12mg kit. I think it was about 1cc. It said when reconstituted it makes 36iu. 12mg/ml.

    surely someone has used these 12mg cartidges by pfizer?

    i dont know how much water is in there. But you need to find out that is the only way to figure out the dose properly
    If people can't tell your on steroids then your doing them wrong

    The amount of bac water a 12mg cartridge comes with should be on their web site, then figure it how jasc said.

    So each 10 mark on your slin pin = 3.6iu so you'd draw to the .55 NOT 55 on your slin pin for 2 iu.

    Can you add more water? That's gonna be hard to dose properly.

    No it should be fine still. If it bubbled up just wait til the bubbles settle down and it gets back to normal before you pin it.

    And quit dropping it, that shits too expensive to be throwing around like that.
