My friend got this at a shop the other day. How can this be right?

Yes, She is just starting out. I think someone made a mistake.spyke65 said:Is your friend just starting out? I’m not sure I’d want to take 6.6mg twice weekly as a starting point. The titration schedule is crazy fast too. Typical starting dose is 2.5mg per week for 4 weeks.

My friend is a 70 year old woman who is about 5-08 and 140 lbs. She just wanted to drop a few pounds. I am going to go by the shop and find out tomorrow.on2jinm said:We're missing one number, the total volume. If it's 3ml, then the first four doses (33U) are 2.2mg ea. (4.4mg/wk); the second four doses (37U) are ~2.47mg ea. (4.94mg/wk). Those eight doses gets you to ~18.68 mg and 2.8ml used. Using the same scale, the 41U doses would be ~2.73mg (~5.46g/wk), but that would be from a new pen. Kinda weird titration schedule for sure. Please forgive the indelicate question, but maybe they're starting out high because of your friend's high starting weight? I know that's not the ususal protocol.

Well, we know if there's only one pen, then it needs to be at least as much as the units to be given on the schedule:on2jinm said:We're missing one number, the total volume.

It's a local place that sells all the peptides over the counter. Like a med spa but just a peptide store.Vriende said:I don't know what you mean by a "shop" but if that's how a Med Spa operates, that looks dangerous!
I'm glad I found grey!

This sounds sketchy as hell and I would not inject anything into my body that someone like that tried to sell me. Also, if someone selling something like that tried to explain to me why they thought a brick and mortar shop openly selling what is almost certainly on-site grey already-reconstituted by someone with bad judgement was a good idea, I would only be able to hear the first four words. I go deaf when someone shady tries to explain anything. I also can't hear dudes explaining feminism, unsolicited advice, or any answers to a yes or no question I've asked that does not begin or end with 1, Yes 0, No 2, I'm not sure or 3, Sometimes.308fan said:It's a local place that sells all the peptides over the counter.

Good point, I read it too quickly!on2jinm said:We're missing one number, the total volume
