IGF-1 LR3

[Holoman]

Sorry for the newbie question but I just got some IGF-1 LR3 which I've never used before. Its 1ml and 1mg/ml. I've read some dosages on other threads - e.g. 20mcg every day. My problem is that these dosages are tiny 20mcg = 0.02cc.

How would you recommend I measure out these low dosages? Do I dilute the 1ml? How much BW should I add?

Many thanks,
Holoman

add 1ml of AA to make 1mg/1000mcg If you have U100/1cc insulin pins.

add 1 ml of AA you now have 1000mcg/ml of IGF. So if i want 20mcg that would be 20/1000=.02ml
Since you have 1cc/100u insulin syringes and usually each tick is measured at .02cc you need to fill yours 1 tick


dont squirt it directly on the igf ..let it fall down the sides

Thanks a lot for the reply. Much appreciated.
The IGF1 came pre-diluted at 1mg/ml (1 ml total).

My question is how do you accurately measure .02ml??? Its an absolutely tiny dosage. The lowest I've ever injected is .1ml (I have 0.5ml insulin syringes).

the pin is calibrated to 50, then each unit=1mcg, so ya would draw 20 units to get 20 mcg dose

you'll just have to be careful or up your dose
