to mix hcg

[wyndy]

Hi guys, can I mix HCG - human chorionic gonadotropin - with ringer or NaCl 0.9% to dilute it.
Thanks in advance

Just use bacteriostatic water.

Jes, but I work in a hospital where it's easier find ringer or NaCl, and if it's possible it will better for me.

Nah, you have to use bacteriostatic water. You also have to refrigerate it after you mix it. They use bacteriosatic water so that no bacteria can grow in the vial. You refrigerate it to slow and/or almost stop bacteria from growing in the vial. Thus stopping you from getting an infection.

I wouldn't, nacl, I'd be worried the salt may degrade it. Ringers, the sugar may encourage bacteria growth.

You can make your own Bac water if you need. It's just sterile water mixed with .9% benzyl alcohol. Yes, that's .9% not 9%.

Or just order it from the hcg source advertised on this web site.
