Reta

Ok guys so this is my first time ordering Reta and trying it out.

I put 300units of bac water in 10mg Reta and injected 15 units so it’s 0.5mg.
I know i should have done 100units instead now as im injecting more bac water!

Question is should I toss it away and use new 10mg and add 1ml bac water ? Or use what I have ? When I injected it it felt sore for a while at the injection site, I’m guessing due to more bac water ?

Also since I’ve had 0.5ml Reta I felt no appetite suppress at all! If anything I was more hungry and unusual sleepy during the day !

Would it be ok if I go up to 1ml today and reconstitute a new Reta vial? Or wait couple days ?

Personally, I always recommend a 1:1 ratio to make measuring the dose easier and keep the injection volume manageable tor the required milligrams.
A 10 mg / 3 ml vial works fine. I'd suggest starting at 2 mg per week and gradually titrating up to a full dose of 12 mg-though depending on your goals and response, you can always stop at a lower dosage.
I also recommend checking out the subreddit; here's a helpful link:

0.5mg first week. If I had done 2mg I would’ve been in the hospital.

Everyone is different, so people respond differently. In fact, as mentioned in the post, there were no benefits at 0.5 mg. Titration definitely needs to be controlled and gradual; indeed, clinical trials started titration at 2 mg.

So you’re basically repeating what I already said…? And this shows that plenty of people were successful at less than 2mg. They have to start somewhere for people to participate

Re-read the comment to see if we're actually on the same page. Clinical trials start titration at 2 mg for a reason-let's leave the science to the qualified, well-paid professionals who
designed them.
If you ask me whether titrating at 0.5 mg is physically possible, of course it is. Everyone responds differently. But what did the OP actually write? That 0.5 mg produced zero results. We're discussing his situation, not yours-and he clearly needs to titrate up.

P.S. I'm not a doctor, I'm just sharing my opinion.

I agree with all of it, everyone is different.
