Reconstitution Instructions
To prepare the Semaglutide 5mg vial for research use, follow these steps carefully:
- Preparation
- Remove the protective cap from the Semaglutide vial.
- Wipe the rubber stopper of the peptide vial and the bacteriostatic water vial with alcohol wipes to ensure sterility.
- Reconstitution Process
- Use a 5 ml syringe with a long, thin needle. Draw 2 ml of bacteriostatic water.
- Gently insert the needle at an angle against the wall of the peptide vial and inject the water slowly, drop by drop, to prevent rapid mixing (Please ensure you hold the plunger firmly to prevent fast water intake. The vial will quickly draw in the water due to the vacuum inside).
- Do not shake the vial. Allow the powder to dissolve naturally until the solution becomes completely clear.
- Final Steps
- Once dissolved, clean the vial’s exterior with an alcohol wipe.
- Dispose of the used syringe properly.
- The solution is now ready for use.
Dosing Protocol
For research purposes, start with minimal dosages to monitor tolerability and efficacy. Dosages can be adjusted gradually over time. Use an insulin syringe to withdraw the desired amount of Semaglutide.
| Duration | Dosage (mg) | Insulin Syringe (ml/units) |
|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | 0.125 mg | 0.05 ml (5 units) |
| Weeks 2-4 | 0.25 mg | 0.1 ml (10 units) |
| Weeks 4-8 | 0.5 mg | 0.2 ml (20 units) |
| Weeks 8-12 | 1.0 mg | 0.4 ml (40 units) |
| Week 12 and beyond | 1.25–1.5 mg | 0.5–0.6 ml (50–60 units) |
Frequency: Inject once every 5–6 days. This aligns with Semaglutide’s activity duration in the system.
Injection Sites: Administer subcutaneously in the abdomen (5 cm away from the navel) or in the quadriceps (thigh area).
- Stretch the skin instead of pinching. Insert the syringe at a slight angle for proper subcutaneous delivery.
Diet and Lifestyle Recommendations
To optimize results and reduce side effects during research:
- Stay hydrated with mineral-rich water.
- Follow a high-protein diet to support metabolism.
- Engage in strength training and regular physical activity.
Weight loss effects typically begin around week 4, but individual results vary depending on diet, physical activity, and overall adherence to lifestyle changes.
Storage Instructions
- Reconstituted Semaglutide Solution:
- Store in the refrigerator (2–8°C).
- Shield the vial with foil to protect it from light.
- Use within 1 month for optimal potency.
- Lyophilized (Powdered) Semaglutide:
- Store in the refrigerator (2–8°C), protected with foil.
- The lyophilized powder remains viable for up to 2 years.
By following these detailed instructions, you can ensure the safe and effective use of Semaglutide for your research purposes. Always handle materials with care and maintain proper sterility throughout the process.
