comment on mg ÷ mL, that is the whole formula, why did i find this hard in c/reconstitution · 17 points · 1 days ago
u-100 syringe, not u-40, or your math is off by factor of 19
comment on [Explainer] why 1mL syringes cause overdoses and 0.3mL ones do not in c/reconstitution · 13 points · 3 days ago
dead space is real and the syringe matters

Crossposting this to c/intlshipping because the people who need it are not reading this community.

bacteriostatic and sterile water are not interchangeable, do not use them that way
comment on reconstituted at 1mL instead of 2mL and caught it before injecting. lucky. in c/reconstitution · 69 points · 17 days ago
Cosigning. The concentration on the vial in marker is load-bearing.

nope. mine was the opposite.
comment on bacteriostatic water is the most under-discussed thing in c/cagrilintide in c/reconstitution · 130 points · 1 months ago
This is correct. 1mL versus 13mL is the common mistake.

ALT is where the fatty-liver story shows up first
comment on help me understand A1c, I have read the wiki twice in c/bloodwork · 10 points · 1 months ago
This is correct. ApoB is the better marker.
comment on [Results] 86 weeks on 2.4mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/reconstitution · 165 points · 1 months ago
Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.
comment on genuine question about insulin resistance that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/glp1women · 0 points · 2 months ago
Strongly agree. Cycle changes are documented.

Is that fasted?

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on does A1c actually matter or is it forum lore at this point in c/bloodwork · 192 points · 5 months ago
baseline is the most important baseline labs measurement, you cannot collect it later
comment on is it normal to get the food-noise thing at week 50 in c/glp1women · 0 points · 6 months ago
no cycle-tracking data with identifying details
comment on 4 months in and dead space is still the thing I get wrong in c/reconstitution · 53 points · 6 months ago
Small correction: the trial was 23 weeks, not 38. Does not change your point but people will quote it.

This is correct.
Disagree on that part. 99.2% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.
comment on [Meta] the dead space rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/reconstitution · 163 points · 7 months ago
dead space is real and the syringe matters
comment on the Netherlands: dead space, and what it actually costs here in c/reconstitution · 78 points · 8 months ago
This is correct.
Adding to this: mg/mL is doing more work than the comment implies.
