Lyophilized vials keep at 2–8 °C (36–46 °F). For long-term storage, −20 °C is fine. Keep them out of direct light.
With bacteriostatic water, refrigerate at 2–8 °C and use within 28 days. With plain sterile water there is no preservative — discard within 24 hours.
Freeze–thaw cycles break down peptide structure. Refrigerate only once liquid.
Aim the bacteriostatic water down the vial wall and roll gently to dissolve. Do not shake.
New syringe and needle every time. Swab the stopper, rotate injection sites, never share vials.
A calculator cannot check purity, sterility or identity. Ask for a current Certificate of Analysis (HPLC/MS).
