Lump / infection from semaglutite

[Lifting88]

My girlfriend inject semaglutite sometimes after injection so got a small lump, 2 lumps looks like the they get infected after a few weeks

It is very painfull and red, she went to her docter but the doc told she cant help and it takes times to heal, its from a wrong injection

3 weeks later is still the same, do you know if she can do something to heal faster and did you know how this is happen

Thanks

What are you using to reconstitute?

 

[Lifting88]

Bacwater
Sema from qsc

What's the injection volume? IE what dose in what xx ML of water?

 

[Lifting88]

5mg 2ml

Inject 0.12ml 2 times pw

 

[Ghoul]

5mg 2ml

Inject 0.12ml 2 times pw

What's the MG in that dose?

What's the MG in that dose?

300µg

What's a wrong injection?

Oh duh I didn't see he included the dose in his answer, thanks.

5mg 2ml

Inject 0.12ml 2 times pw

That's excessively concentrated, which intensifies the potential immune response and resulting site reaction.

Eli uses .5ml for .25mg and all doses up to 1mg, then .75ml up to 2.4mg.

I'd add enough bac to double it to .25ml (.5ml would be better), and this will be unlikely. to happen again.

The math might be complex since you've already used some, so consider drawing the dose, then another .2ml of BAC and that should resolve it.

A peptite vial can only have 3ml max

I know, so .5ml wouldn't be an issue with .75mg doses or larger. But UGL isn't pharma. They'll sell you 20mg Sema in a 3ml vial.

It doesn't change the fact that immune reactions causing the problem it looks like she's having are made worse at higher concentrations. Not everyone is that sensitive, but it looks like she is. Pharma didn't choose the dilution ratio they use at random, but to minimize problems like what she's having.

If I were in your position I'd just draw the .12ml dose, then draw more water directly from the BAC Vial, Just don't use that BAC for anything other than Sema to avoid cross contamination.

I thought this was a once a week thing, not twice, anyway.

So instead of 0.25 once, that is split in two.

What is the reason?

@Ghoul don't you think this looks a bit too much for simple immune reaction from bad reconstitution? This looks like bacterial infection lol

 

[Lifting88]

The strange thing is she only have 2 red lumps 4 real small lumps

But she inject i think 20/25 times most times with no problem

Maybe, it could be either. She's been to the doctor who didn't see the need to do anything, so that's covered.

Repeated bacterial infections are
possible, but I'm giving the OP the benefit of the doubt regarding sterile injection practices.

That concentration is twice as high as it should be, so it's worth addressing (there's a pharmacokinetics issue as well, meaning it's absorbed too quickly and will unnecessarily my worsen sides).

To cover the possibility of infections the OP should filter through a .22um PES filter into a fresh vial if he's willing. That's good practice with all peptides, and major (legit) peptide producers recommend that practice when peptide sterility matters, like animal or human use.

Finally, avoid UGL BAC and stick with Hospira.

If OP wants assistance for the filters, vials, and BAC I'd be happy to give him the info.
