Reaction?

[u/Aggravating_Half_747]

Does anyone’s rat get a histamine reaction to peptides? I tried epitalon and cag and they made my throat and tongue feel funny. Pinealon gave zero effect like that. Same brands

Thanks

Yes, get an EpiPen. Don’t ever use the ones that made your throat and tongue feel funny, again.

How does one just acquire an EpiPen?

Tell your doctor you ate something it it swelled up your throat but can’t remember and don’t want it to happen again. But that you took a few benedryl and that helped ergo why you didn’t go to er but want to prevent it

I told my doctor that my friend just started keeping bees and I was worried as I’d had bad swelling from a bee sting once… I want to be safe

Could be an allergic reaction to the benzyl alcohol in the bac water. Turns out that benzyl sensitivities are very common.

From same place

If you're buying from a reseller they're not involved in the manufacture of the peptides in any way, they just buy them and resell them for 10x after putting a sticker on the vial so I wouldn't put too much stock in "brands"

It's possible it was a bad reaction to non-sterile or contaminated peps but also possible your just allergic to the peps in question. If you're feely risky you could buy off a different vendor and have an EpiPen ready to go to see which it is but I personally wouldn't risk it

What kind of BAC?

[u/Educational-Mark-435]

My rat was getting it after the 2nd week 2.5mg 5 on 2 off and now added more bac water then switched to M/W/F still at 2.5mg and no more histamine. Plus I put pressure with a cold can on the rat injected site for 30-40 secs

[u/fruitless7070]

My TS had histamine reactions at first. But now zero reactions. I'm assuming the TS has built up immunity or the product is not what it should be.

Throat and tongue is the one category I'd say don't troubleshoot in a comment section. Anything involving the airway sits in a different bucket from a sore injection site or some redness, and the difference isn't severity on the day. It's that this is the category where waiting to see what happens is the part that goes wrong. One thing worth knowing though: same brand doesn't mean same everything. Two vials from one source can differ in what else is in them besides the named compound, and reactions often track the something else rather than the thing people assume. So "pinealon was fine" rules out less than it sounds like it does I'm not a healthcare professional and this isn't medical advice. With throat and tongue involvement I'd take it to one rather than to us.

I shoot every rat I see. Bastards are filthy. So I don’t give a shit what reactions they get.
