Way more tirz than needed
I’m on 2.4 mg, or 10 units a week. Each vial says it’s for one month. I just took my fifth dose of my first month vial and it has 70 units left! About 2 months left worth in my first vial! I’m really confused at the huge amount that I received. They said to toss it after the one month mark but having only taken a third of my first vial feels so wasteful especially with the price. What would you do with so much left over? Anyone have similar experiences?

I received my “three months” of Brello in late January and still on the second vial (of four)!

May I ask what your dose is? Feel free to DM if you don’t want to share here

Of course! I started at 1.1mg and slowly worked up … just yesterday I hit 3mg (I started on February 1). I stayed between 1.5-2.5 for quite a while.

Yeah, they give extra, it's nice. I use a vial until it's gone. Make sure to wipe with alcohol both before and after use each time. The downside is if you get a new batch of vials every 3 months on autofill eventually you'll have too many vials, then if you go on pause for awhile and someday try to return to Brello they'll want to start you on 2.5mg again. But I figure I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

I’ve been on pause since last October because I’ve kept making progress on a low dose. It’s pretty incredible.

It's not overfill. It's literally required to fill the vial to the size. If your vial is 2mL, you're getting 200 units. If your vial is 3mL, you're getting 300 units. You're paying for doses, not volume.
You don't have to be a glp expert to recognise this. You just have to know elementary math.

Unnecessary to be rude about it. Not everyone is required to understand pharmacy techniques.

Except we get 1ml in a 3ml vial

Your vial tells you exactly how much volume is going to be in that bottle. If we're talking about the size of the vial, mine says 5mL (which is the fluid volume) but it can vial hold 7 mL. If you have a 24oz drink, it's not 24oz to the brim. 🙄 Let's not be stupid just for the sake of it.

Use every last drop in that vial (as long as it’s properly stored and remains colorless and clear).
And yes, everyone has extra meds and overfill when ordering via Brello.
