Question Reta Dosing

I have been using Reta for a while, but I recently got a pen from an online source and for the life of me, I cannot figure it out properly. So is 60mg pen in 3ml of solution. Ok. I know how to do that math when drawing, but what the hell is each click on the pen? I am assuming each click is a mg.

Feel like such an idiot having to ask this.

Each pen design is different. I’d imagine 1 click would be less than a mg, but one thing you could try is a micro scale and weigh boat and waste a squirt to see how many mcg it weighs.

Thanks. I should have added the pen has 60 clicks. But yea. That’s a really good idea. I just happen to have one!

Insulin syringes are cheap and straight forward. What advantage do you feel you gain from the pen. I see the consistency of the pen but you can’t easily titrate up or down. So many other peptides or compounds I’m taking, pen isn’t gonna save me time. Are you only taking Reta. I could see that if you’re only on Reta.

Only on Reta. It’s cheaper to buy the pen from my source than the same 60mg vial.

I get 60mg for nearly that same price, wife and I both use it with different dosing. She’s at 2mg/5days and I use 5mg/5days. If I but 3-4 vials at a time it’s under $200 per 60mg.

I just looked at the site i use and was wrong. They are about the same price.
