Capping and Preserving Accutane Raws

[Bulldog413]

Im only running 20mg daily and im as clear as a blue sky, im also on blast w/ tren test mast npp and anavar, its keeping me clear so far. Running a liver supp with all this as well.

Nice. After the first week, I had to up the dose, my skin got used to it laughed off the acutane. I'm running 40/60 alternating days (avg 50mg/day). Pretty clear, but also, my bar for clear skin keeps going up. I'm mostly used to the chapped lips, and they aren't as bad as winter chapped lips. Lips just feel kind of dry, light peeling. Still carry one or two sticks of chapstick at all times.

New experiment coming soon, my made up supply is running low.

Oh, not sure I mentioned it - get a stick with UV filter.

And it's good to use vaseline generously applied to lips before going to sleep

Ran another experiment. 15mg/ml accutane to olive oil. Still had some sediment, though less. I ran a larger batch, and I definitely have some inconsistency in dose due to the sedimentation. After cleaning, and not wanting to use my dwindling stock of isopropyl alcohol to clean my pipettes, I soaked them in dishwashing detergent, and it worked great, it pulled the accutane right out of my pipette.

So now, I think I'll test some surfactants. After doing some light research, I have easy access to two, glycerine and simethecone (gasx). I need to do more research on surfactants and see exactly how surfactants operate and if I can eliminate any of my candidates before running an experiment.

I'll take a look again, lost time I got chapstick with sunscreen my lips didn't much like it. I generally go with "classic" chapstick only. Anyone reading should definitely avoid carmex and the like, it contains an acid that burns your lips (exfoliation!) setting up a vicious cycle of killing the top layer of your lips making them easier to dry out, then you apply more carmex, burning the top layer of your lips...

I upped my dose again, my shoulders weren't improving, a few days at 90mg/day and my shoulders are finally clearing up. This is a bit over the 1mg/kg recommendation, so I won't be doing this long. I'm taking advantage of being in self imposed quarantine (and out of the sun) by upping the dose and getting this over with. There's definitely some brain fog and some light joint paint, hopefully that clears when I lower the dose. No gastrointestinal issues so far, I see many complaints of that online.

A good thread worthy of a follow-up... Did you try any experiment with DMSO ? I have a batch of Isotretinon powder - that has now sort of solidified inside the UV airtight wrap. I have used DMSO for ages to administer raw hormones, its fantastic for that, no more pins ! I wish to use it topically - I have a major problem with curly hairs ingrowing in my thighs. I used 0.1% Tretinon Gel and it works extremely well, but I am finding supplies precarious, so want to make my own mix

Realize I’m resurrecting an old thread.

Please skip over if uninterested. I wanted to ask @janoshik & @BroScientist if a simple solution for us basic users wouldn’t be the following:

Raws: Stored in double vacuum sealed bags with oxygen and moisture/desiccant packs at ~39-42 degrees Fahrenheit. (No Light Conditions)

Administration/Finished: Simple Humco Suspension vehicle, stored in 30 ml amber vials and kept in the fridge with other refrigerated medicines.

I feel like unless one is trying to stabilize for end point customers as a commercial lab, this is probably the most common sense method of storage and administration.

Vets please educate me a bit if incorrect

Well, there's still the issue with storage at the warehouse / transport.

I have doubts the same precautions are taken there

Of that I have no doubt.

I’ll be sending you a sample. We shall get to see what the purity comes back as in non refrigerated shipping scenarios.

I’m genuinely quite curious
