Reconstituted HCG

[Cutt29]

I know that HCG reconstituted with a solvent containing benzyl alcohol is good in the fridge for 60 days but does anybody know how long HCG is good for when it is reconstituted with isotonic NaCl solution (the 1ml solvent that came with my 5000iu amp of Organon Pregnyl)?
Thanks in advance

 

[kbrkbr]

As I recall, the last box of pregnyl I bought in TJ said it was good for 30 days.

 

[TracDT1]

what about when it is reconstituted with Bacteriostatic Water USP? If I stick it in the fridge is it good for 60 days?...if I keep the HCG and wait to reconstitute it do I still have to stick it in the fridge and will it increase its life?

 

[ItalianMuscle27]

I think he is right..30 days. I think youd use it up before than anyways..

 

[TracDT1]

problem is I got my HCG and my cycle is roughly 60 days long so what to do? will the HCG keep until when I need it at the end of my cycle or what?

ps-I obviously have not reconstituted it yet

 

[kbrkbr]

Were you planning on using it throughout your cycle or only during pct?

 

[Cutt29]

Im plannin on using it for PCT 3 weeks at 1000iu m/w/f
I want to put the 2 amps of HCG and solvent into 10 diff slip pins at 1000iu per pin then refrigerate. But i would only do this if it would remain stable. otherwise i would get some bac water.

thats a good question...it would depend on the formulation itself (ie which company made it, and what water you use)

really to avoid drama, in cases like this i would prefer patients reconstitute right before inject.

 

[Cutt29]

Its Organon from Holland and the water is just what is in the amp that comes with the Pregnyl, 0.9% NaCl.....so 30 days, right away? which is correct

So if I got Bac water and I reconstitute right b4 injection then it shouldnt matter if I keep my HCG at room temp and non-reconstituted for about 60 days?

 

[kbrkbr]

No. After reconstitution it needs to be refridgerated.

 

[TracDT1]

No. After reconstitution it needs to be refridgerated.

I know I am talking about before...how long can it last at room temp?

 

[Cutt29]

TracDT1- at room temp and in a dark place your unmixed HCG will last for years...only once it is reconstituted does it need to be refrigerated, if you are mixing it with bac water then it will be good refrigerated for 60 days.

My question is if anybody knows for sure how long HCG (Organon Pregnyl from Holland) mixed with its NaCl water will last refrigerated.
Thanks

after reconstituted with the NaCl it should last approx 14 days if refrigerated.

If left unrefridgerated, only a few hours.

Only mix the powder and solvent for the amount you need for that week. Otherwise leave it umixed.

 

[Cutt29]

Thanks Ihulk, can i ask you where you got that info, not because i don't believe you but becuase ive spent tons of time searching rx websites and the like and couldnt find this info

 

[Cutt29]

bump for more info

 

[jumpshot]

he got it from me

trial and error bro

 

[Advisor_x]

NO longer than 7-10 days tops, remember water is a rich inviroment for bacteria and HCG still breaks down.........

This is incorrect -- 30 days only!

 

[Cutt29]

This is incorrect -- 30 days only!

This is correct

IMPORTANT: USE COMPLETELY AFTER RECONSTITUTION. RECONSTITUTED SOLUTION IS STABLE FOR 60 DAYS WHEN REFRIGERATED.

there are many other sites too if you want the links....

roger that brudda

ihulk believes its all in the preparation. Why reconstitute anything that you are not going to use within 7 days.... No reason too.

"1-10 mL vial of solvent containing: water for injection with sodium chloride 0.56% and benzyl alcohol 0.9%NDC 0052-0325-10. "

This is incorrect for bacteriostatic water which is 30 days.



Another flaw on that site:

" DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION - for intramuscular use only."

dumb q...(I'm good at these...

I want to run 500iu eod for the last 3 weeks. This would mean 10 shots. Or 0.1 ml per slin pin. Woudl this be ok? Is this how you guys normally do it? Pre load sysinges with say 0.1ml hcg solution and chuck in fridge?

Thanks

That is Bacteriostatic Water ...0.9% Benzyl Alcohol(Bacteriostatic Water)

some sites say inject IM only while some say IM or Subq...i think that is just the manufactures recomendation

not a dumb Q at all bro. thats exactly how you do it. but I think you'll see that 500 i.u. is so small its easier to put in 1000 i.u. (0.2ml) and just inject eod and finish it in 10 days.
