Lr3 IGF-1 (first time question)
Ok so I haven't used it yet but am excited to try it, my question comes in how to reconstitute it? I've read a few threads on here and some people say use AA, others say bacteriostatic water and I'm confused as to which is best. Obviously I want it to last as long as possible once recontituted, (its the normal 1000mcg powder) so using it in a couple days (like some people have said is all that it lasts is not possible). one of the threads said it would last 3 days in Baw another said up to a month. so you can see my confusion. I just want to get the best out of it. any help on this would be greatly appreciated, thanks for your time.

put 2ml aa in it and store in freezer. then at time of use draw 1 part igf, then 2 parts ba water. ba water dilutes it so it doesn't sting as bad and cause tissue necrosis. peptidecalculator.com will help you know how much you are taking.

ok, so the AA is absolutely necessary? No way to just mix it with Ba water? Just asking, don't want to make it seem like I don't believe you. Just curious about the whole deal.

haven't started yet but I was planning on running 20mcg/day to start (as I haven't used it before) and then increasing from there. Possibly to 40mcgs/day

if you use ba only it will be useless in 48 hours. If you bought the 10 pack of 100mcg vials you could use ba water if you used 50mcg per day.

ok, sounds like i'll just get the AA (as mine is the 1000mcg powder vial). I just wanted to make sure since I read on here people saying it would last up to 3 weeks with the BA water as long as it was refrigerated. That would allow me to use the whole vial @50mcg a day and I wouldn't have to buy anything extra as I have plenty of BA NaCl.

my Igf comes as a powder so I don't know about whether they used AA or not. MY question is still, how can using Bacteriostatic Saline (meaning sterile NaCl with benzyl alcohol as a 0.9% solution) be bad for the IGF and how it can go bad so quickly? other "supplements" that have benzyl alcohol in them are fine and last for months. Why is it that the IGF will go bad so quickly even if mixed with this and in the fridge? Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question I'm not really a science guy and just want to fully understand whats going on.

heavyiron wrote about this. Do a search for igf with his name. The problem is you don't know how they made it. So it is safer to use aa.

I don't disagree about safety (but wouldn't the benzyl alcohol in the water kill the bacteria? that is why they put it in there), I searched on IGF and got variying suggestions from it last a few hours to 3 weeks. One thread in which heavy refers to reconsituting HGH (I know they are different but are both powders) he says you can use the BA water to reconstitute it and it would be good for 3 weeks when kept in the fridge. So you can see my confusion, I have plenty of sealed vials of Ba water and if I use that it would be easier, I want to be as safe as the next guy but sometimes people make things more complicated than they have to be and I just wanted to clear everything up before I started.
