    im taking clen...quick question

    I took AR-R clen last year and had great results. got a new bottle in the mail last week and I am on day 2.

    Question 1: At 200mcg/ml, the syringe that came with the clen is measure in ml's. Is there a trick to getting an accurate amount? I was a chem major in college and am a little confused. There is a baseline, 4 lines, and then the 1 ml line on the syringe.

    so
    1ml=200mcg
    .5ml=100mcg
    .25ml=50mcg

    correct?

    That is what I have been going by. Yesterday I took 25mcg, and today I took 50 mcg. I have not felt it working too much yet is this normal? I remember on my first cycle really noticing 50 mcg on the second day!

    Thanks!

    yep. your dosing is correct.

    have you checked your temperature?

    I have not checked my temp. Should I see a noticeable temp increase in the first 2 days. My temp was 97.6 a few days before starting

    the oral syringe that comes with AR-R clen does not measure in ml's., it is a 1ml syringe.

    the full syringe to the 1ml mark is a 200mcg dose..
    at the .1 mark = 20mcg
    at the .2 mark = 40mcg
    at the .3 mark = 60mcg
    at the .4 mark = 80mcg
    at the .5 mark = 100mcg
    at the .6 mark = 120mcg
    at the .7 mark = 140mcg
    at the .8 mark = 160mcg
    at the .9 mark = 180mcg
    at the 1ml mark (full syringe) = 200mcg

    my apologies for the long table. I have seen this question several times through out the boards, but perhaps maybe to the obvious nature has not been fully explained and may be the cause for some confusion...

    I also seriously under dosed the first day due to over thinking it guess i thought it was 10ml syringe as well and did mere drops the first day to the tune of maybe 10mcg.. I felt nothing day 2 I got my head wired right and drew back to the .3 mark (60mcg) and increased the dose 20mcg per day til I reached the .6 mark (120mcg)dose..currently day 10 shaking and baking....haven't experienced any cramping take 500mg taurine pre-WO all is good in my camp...

    much respect to AR-R for the fast shipping and customer support good stuff all the way around

    yeah its kind of a dumb ass mistake....I was a dumb ass too the first day, it happens, I looked at the syringe and saw the .1 thinking damn that's 200mcg this shit is concentrated as all hell this bottle is gonna last a decade...LMFAO

    the OP thought he was doing 50mcg which would be half way between the .2 and the .3 mark on the syringe. when in fact all he was doing was a couple of drops of clen . he wasn't even drawing past the .1 mark which would only be 20mcg. he"s not the only one that has made the mistake like I said I have noticed that there are a bunch of people that have been confused in a similar fashion. asking how to measure accurately and/or claiming the compound isn't working thinking that they're dosed up when in fact they're doing a negligible amount subsequently feeling no effect...i mean at a quick glance you look at the syringe and see the numbers thinking ok, milliliters when thats not the case thats why it is not a 10 past the .9 mark its 1ml

    and the correct measurement is also fluid from the tip of the syringe to the corresponding mark, no air gaps bubbles etc...submerge the tip in the fluid and draw back until the fluid level is at the corresponding mark

    this should help a few people out that are having similar (dumb-ass) issues..

    yup that was my problem exactly...I figured it out and am currently dosing at 160mcg/day split up so I take 80mcg at 7am and 80 mcg at 1:00. I worked my way up to this amount. I feel minimal sides...I get shaky sometimes but I by no means feel like im baking. Should I feel like my temp has increased? I also get kind of tired throughout the day and havent noticed any dramatic increase in my pulse.

    any reccomendations?

    how long have you been on clen ??

    it desensitizes your beta receptors subsequently losing its effectiveness when your BBT returns to normal like before you started dosing clen then you will need to take ketotifen or benadryl to regulate the sensitization of those receptors and continue using clen effectively.

    my temperature started coming down on day 12 and 13 on i began taking 1mg of ketotifen on day 13...results may vary. In my research, I have found no rhyme or reason as to the variance's in tolerance to clen i figured body weight would be a good base but it doesnt seem like it is. my body weight is 172lb and i dose clen @120mcg ED I take it all at once between 1:30-2:30pm and its been very effective. there are guys on here way bigger than me who cant handle any more than 60-80mcg some even less...

    I have a theory as to why this may be, but i prefer not to speculate as it is just a theory right now
