There is also no way to know that the peptide is evenly mixed with the filler, and there is no reason at all that any trouble would have been gone to to ensure this. As it is designed to be dissolved. I do not know if the drug is mixed with filler and then measured to put in the vials or if the drug is added and then filler added to each vial, in the second case it would be distributed very unevenly. And you could end up with one vial having most of the drug in it if you divide the powder in 10 , scales accurate to less than 5mg are not cheap as well.
Also sterility is impossible to maintain if dealing with the powder.
Trying to do it with powder has higher risks of dose inaccuracy and contamination.
There are no real disadvantages of dissolving the contents in bac, as much as fits in the vial ?3ml, dividing it by 10 -0.3ml in each new sterile vial. then dilute that to what concentration you want to use.
Generally freezing reconstituted peptides is not ideal due to peptide degradation , but in this case if you are on very low doses, one or a few percent degradation is of no consequence from a single freeze thaw cycle. And is a much better option than leaving them in the fridge for many months due to the risk of degradation and bacterial or fungal growth.
So reconstitute , dilute into multiple vials, dosing accuracy is maintained, use one freeze the rest.
or buy smaller dosage vials, the difference in cost is not huge and a lot less stuffing around.
