comment on nobody warned me about constipation and I would have liked the warning in c/sideeffects · 114 points · 2 years ago
smaller meals, earlier, is the boring advice that works
comment on vendor is the most under-discussed thing on this board in c/vendorvetting · 470 points · 2 years ago
How many separate lots is that across? One lot tested twice is one data point.
comment on unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about reconstitution is guesswork in c/reconstitution · 25 points · 2 years ago
reconstituting at a round concentration makes every later dose easy
comment on [Question] reship — what am I missing here in c/vendorvetting · 64 points · 2 years ago
I would separate documentation from logistics. A supplier can be excellent at one and ordinary at the other, and averaging them hides it.
comment on [Lab] split one vial across PeptideMeter and VendorInvestigate — 99.0% and 99.1% in c/vendorvetting · 1.6k points · 2 years ago
What did they say when you asked for the method line?
comment on the half-life thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/glp1science · 175 points · 2 years ago
I would not read that in vitro number across to a person. The conditions are nothing like physiological.
comment on dead space — 16 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/reconstitution · 148 points · 2 years ago
dead space in the needle hub is real and it is small
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify insulin syringe in c/reconstitution · -24 points · 2 years ago
Asked CPC what volume they reconstitute to for their own stability testing and they answered in one line. Useful thing to know.
comment on genuine question about reconstitution that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/reconstitution · 1 points · 2 years ago
Bacteriostatic or plain sterile water?

twice as much water halves the concentration and doubles the units for the same dose

I keep a laminated card in the drawer with the arithmetic on it. Looks ridiculous. Has never once let me draw the wrong volume.

Wrote the date on the vial as well as the concentration after losing track of which one was opened first.
comment on 17 months in and fatigue is still the thing I get wrong in c/sideeffects · 17 points · 2 years ago
Severe, or unpleasant? They are genuinely different questions and the answers diverge.
